The Middlesex University's Graduation Collections were unveiled during Graduate Fashion Week and featured wool runway staples that pushed creative boundaries. Boasting a variety of conceptual looks, this presentation opened with a textured knitwear range that was both sculptural and vibrantly hued.
This Fall/Winter 2015/2016 presentation paired oversized sweaters with hanging hats and earmuff accessories and also layered boxy shrugs atop tunics that featured a crocheted construction technique.
This imaginative menswear presentation challenged tradition and opened an audience's minds to a new world of styles that were both outlandish and surprisingly functional. In addition to its unique texture explorations, this knitwear range also featured a candy colored palette that consisted of pale pink, turquoise and violet tones.
