U.MI - 1 SS12

The last day of London Fashion Week, of course was Menswear day:

U.MI - 1 SS12

U.MI - 1 was lucky to get a prime exhibition spot in the Freemason Hall. In the first room there was a projection of a film playing two men admiring each others suits, occasionally swapping jackets and trying on different jackets. To the right is another room, through some iron gates. First the room is empty, then two male models walk out. Slowly the room fills with about 8 models each wearing a different outfit from the collection. Once filled, the fashion public are allowed into the room for a closer look. The collection featured cubist influences and Prince of Wales check. Combining this with soft beachy colours; sky blues and sandy beiges, the designer gave a contemporary feel to a typically traditional tailoring technique.
