The lookbook for the Christopher Shannon 2012 Fall/Winter collection features an onslaught of mixed pattern checkered patterns and black. The British designer is no stranger to eclectic style. His apparel pieces often dawn expansive printed graphics, plaid and collages of busy prints thrown together on loose fitting trousers or long tunics.
This collection is more subdued in terms of color. The garments stick to a more monochromatic color palette with hints of blue creeping into plaid designs. A noteworthy piece from the Christopher Shannon 2012 Fall/Winter collection would definitely be the frilled back sports coat. Adorned with black stripes on the sleeve, this white coat resembles the garb of a Spanish folk dancer. The frills ripple like a waterfall with eyelet holes at the bottom of each one.
