The Raeburn 'Cold War' Collection
References: raeburndesign & guardian
UK designers Christopher and Graeme Raeburn have created a unique collection made from recycled parachutes and snow camouflage fabric from the Cold War era. The latter consists of a “snowy pines†fabric pattern.
The army inspired designs are delicate and appear translucent, while the parachute parka jackets are lightweight and breezy. They come in different styles, from bomber jackets to a poncho cinched at the waist with a belt. Shorts, and even an apron dress are featured.
The Raeburn brothers were educated at the Royal College of Art.
