With JW Anderson one of the hottest designers around right now, it seems only right that the Irish born talent and Mr Porter team up to offer us gents a capsule collection with an edge. Boasting 8 original designs, this range offers both reinvented wardrobe staples as well as more statement pieces that carry the token Anderson androgyny.
Versatility is key to these pieces. All are designed in neutral hues providing both practicality and trans seasonal wearability. Edgier pieces include the tee with red and white detailing and the statement jumper with floral detailing. More subtle ideas come in the form of the classic pale shirt and the instantly recognisable anchor logo sweater. Whilst Anderson is renowned for his daring approach to fashion, this offering proves he is just as capable of delivering the more conservative styles. However, that is not to say that a more daring approach hasn’t been taken toward some of these pieces. The central one being the pleated shorts with skirt silhouette. Appealing both to tailored style seekers as well as those looking for a head turner.
Proving that even the out there high end designers are able to provide the wearable staples, this collection from JW Anderson only strengthens his already soaring status within the industry.

Acne are at it again, this time around bringing us a wide legged, fuzzy slippered interpretation of fall winter 2014. The Swedish brands signature mix of a stylish casual with high fashion is apparent but with exciting plays on proportions and silhouettes. Heavy tops and slim, cropped bottoms; or vice versa, is the in thing for their latest collection. Prints and relaxed contrasting add some detail to the clean-cut, experimental streetwear aesthetic.
