Milan Fashion Week. Pringle of scotland S/S 11.

Out of the Blue....

With beautiful, billowy silhouettes and a stunning palette of blues which was inspired by the film 'blue' by Derek Jarman, Pringle of Scotland's S/S 11 collection really stood out to me. It was quietly innovative as cotton shirting was shredded and knitted into the same cable on one piece an effect that isn't instantly noticed until seen close up, creating both visually stunning pieces and all entirely wearable. The idea from Creative Director, Clare Waight Keller being 'to completely deconstruct the fabrication of classic menswear pieces such as the trench, the jean and the shirt and reconstruct them in fresh, new and inventive ways'. Pringle are constantly pushing the experimental capabilities of knitwear and I greatly look forward to next seasons collection.
