From the start, Christopher Kelly has taken an indirect approach towards presenting his collections for Theatre de la Mode. From nano-scaled puppets, Kelly has progressed to film with the clothing from the collections forming a part of the narrative. S/S 09's Undertone collection becomes a richer affair for A/W09, that is now solely focused on menswear. The sillhouettes are kept loose with fabrics becoming heavier and more luxurious; oversized shirts are inserted with contrasting printed textile panels and a texturised vibrant turquoise habotai silk is used repeatedly.

Theatre de la Mode is now stocked at No-One on 1 Kingsland Road.
