This time round I bring you the designs of Melbourne designer Jock Dredge, with his collection entitled & Then There Was Light. Carl from the Fashionisto says "In Minds Eye serves up a collection that maintains dark aspirations, while remaining refreshingly low-key". Most of the garments are simple pieces, with a few acidic patterns and a screen printed motif. The starkness of the pieces seems to complement well the bleak Australian coast where the shots are taken. Overall the collection seems to present an edgier and darker take on current fashion trends, and does so with success.
These matching Yin-Yang sweater are cool, and give me ideas for my own designs that I'm working on. I also like the use of having a shirt tied around the waist in the second image, a style that was also featured in Fernardo Frisioni's Spring Summer collection at RAFW this year (See below).
These two tops I like particular. The contrast of the denim sleeves with the white is unconventional, yet cool, and the doubled shirt may not be original, but here it's done really well.
