>> I didn't want to crowd my previous He/She post with Tim Soar's moodboard images for S/S 12 so here they are.  From the A/W 11-12 unisex concept, which Steve and I roadtested, where men and womens clothes are interchangeable and undefinable in gender, we will see a greater degree of separation for S/S 12.  As it turns out S/S 12 menswear will feel slightly more feminine and the womenswear will also become less androgynous which will make for an interesting debut at London Fashion Week, as Tim Soar has become one of the recipients of New Gen.  Fifties silhouettes where it's tight at the bottom and fuller on the top populate Soar's moodboards which will definitely play out in the collection.  For men?  It seems there'll be a reivist of a 90s broad-shouldered tailoring.  Can't read into these too deeply other than for their longstanding aesthetic value but we'll see come September what the fruits of Soar's labour produces…

  1. I love the whole growing concept of Women wearing clothes which are a little less gender defined and broadening into the masculine side of things; the aesthetic as a whole reminds me of Topshop’s recently debuted New Mod collection which will be hitting the store this coming Fall/Winter. Girls beginning to wear masculine fitted blazers and guys not being defined to the typical canvas pieces, it’s great! – Daniel Dunt
