Alan Taylor's Cubist Tailoring

There's a satisfying air of refreshment when you discover someone who you know is set to become a powerful force within the fashion industry. This Irish designer, Alan Taylor, carries a spark that will hopefully propel menswear into a new direction. Having worked with high profile designers such as Simone Rocha and Alexander McQueen, this modest man has appeared out of the blue with might, showing us a heavily Cubist inspired collection. His collection encompasses juxtaposing tailored elements that are out of proportion and soft sheers and heavy kilts, no doubt an expression of his heritage. Overall, his designs are meant to give men an interesting silhouette, something which has been much associated with womenswear.

Ksubi's Structural Spring/Summer collection

Ksubi has taken an architectural spin on Spring/Summer fashion, and have furthered their fashion design prowess by incorporating elements of Ancient Egyptian and South American artworks to their upcoming collection. Since Ksubi did not show at the recent Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Australia, which may have been due to the launch of Ksubi designer, Dan Single's, independent line - DAAN, fans of the rebellious Australian label have awaited the release of the look book. The orderliness of quilted bombers, double collar leather jackets and tesselated sweaters mesh easily with the psychedelic tie-dye, odd plaid and symbolic patterns in shady hazes of blue - set to create a trend amongst the younger fashion-conscious market.
