Five things we loved about JW Anderson spring/summer 2015

Always a highlight of the London fashion week schedule, this season’s show saw JW Anderson in a freaky riviera mood. Really.

1. The backwards sailor pants.
The nautical gold buttons appeared on
the back rather than the front. It was a classic JW Anderson twist:
unexpected, a bit weird, really wantable. And - bonus - flattering.

2. The freaky riviera mood.
Oversized sunhats in Hell’s Angel black
leather, rope ties and sailcloth cut outs. Towelling coords - half
skirt suit, half on-deck cover up. Think Alexa Chung on a yacht next summer.
3. The luxe leather.
The sophisticated, skilful leather shapes - from
elegant skirts to draped funnel necks - bode well for the designer’s
upcoming debut at Spanish leather house Loewe.

4. The pussy-bow meets neck-tie detail.
It wouldn’t be a JW show
without a new take on androgyny. This time around it was a little more
chic, a little more bourgeois. Who knew LVMH would suit him so well?
5. Overboard.
As in the 1987 Goldie Hawn film was surely on the moodboard. The oversized picturehats, yacht cover-ups and loads of leather were a dead give
away. Joanna Stayton’s pre-amnesia rich bitch wardrobe reworked
beautifully for 2015.
