FAULT Reviews – Casely Hayford SS16

 

d-sj-

With references crossing motorsport, the 1960s and Asian art, everything was splashed with the Casely-Hayford touch of cool. To a soundtrack of hip hop and grime classics, the models swagged out in layered looks of loose-fitting, knee-length coats, oversized t-shirts and trousers cut slightly above the ankle.

Prints ranges from grained checks, to a busy botanical design to a repetitive ornate tile look. The colour palette was high energy with sporting red, cobalt blue and tropical green standing out against strong black and white looks. Skinny mod suits in bright tones, paired with oversized sunglasses were a good look for men who dare to stand out at the office, but the standout pieces were long, zip-up coats in high-shine fabric with symmetrical colour-blocking panels and padded sleeves, taking inspiration from life in the fast lane.

High octane and high on our list of looks to channel next spring!
