KILGOUR SAVILE ROW LONDON AW15 COLLECTION
Carlo Brandelli’s work for Kilgour, always focuses on contemporary tailoring. Every season a new set of ‘layers’ is added to the developing process and archive.
This season, the aesthetic focus for the collection has begun with the idea of ‘thread’. Thread is the key component to all design.
The presentation within the multi-use Kilgour flagship space in Savile Row, was built around an installation of fibre optic thread.
Continually referencing the bespoke craft, this season, the designs and investigations for the collection primarily focus on the development of a Kilgour ‘K’ lapel and front, aysemetric tailoring, new impression pocket details and silk overlay edges.
Focus is also placed on the idea of dressing formally through layering, a link to the paper pattern process. There is a study on expressing ‘seams’; a truly innovative rendition of fine tailoring.
New developments can be seen in the collar and lapel propositions for knotch overlay, contemporary peak, reduced knotch and angle shawl.
