A bit more Pre-Raphaelite / psychedelic

On Friday I went to the Tate Britain with my friend Johanna Zetterstrom-Sharp. There amongst other things we saw an exhibition about that great arbitrator of the aesthetic, Kenneth Clark. There was a lot of Pre-Raphaelite work in the show and some pretty far-out visionary stuff too.

I thought, "My designs are way too tame".

So inspired by the day-glow pallets of artists like William Holman Hunt I have been working up the old leopard and markhor design (it's still very much work in progress).

The Shoreditchabad


Following on in the theme of the Pakistan-isation (or more strictly Persian-isation) of jacket names, I have come up with The Shoreditchabad.

The idea is to produce a tight fitting, narrow shouldered unstructured jacket of the type which is currently popular in Shoreditch and equivalent places in other cities. It will also give me the opportunity to produce a very zingy lining.

The theme I have chosen for this lining is an image of the sort of person who I hope might wear The Shoreditchabad doing battle with a snow leopard in the deep snows and high winds of the Hindu Kush.
