Christopher Raeburn SS14

Sand-hued mesh and satellite imagery prints; Christopher Raeburn does survivalist cool

Initial reaction:

Survivalist cool gone trekking.

References:

Victorian cartography, maps and ordnance surveys.

Stand out looks:

Raeburn’s knack for body-mapping, this time on a sheer sweatshirt printed with an abstract camo-esque pattern, inspired by the lines of satellite desert imagery.

Reminds us of:

The lizard print and desert theme from Raeburn's SS14 menswear collection. His and hers utilitarian desert romance.

Unexpected details:

Small purses worn on a string around the neck.

How they wore it:

Matchy-matchy prints but with modern sportswear ease.

For the kids:

Raeburn's signature folded and strapped oversize rucksacks and sand-hued mesh tracksuit bottoms.

Accessories:

Clutch bags that managed to be both boyish and ladylike. 

Location:

The newly face-lifted BFC tent at Somerset House. Ten years younger in ten days.

Viral moment:

Mirage, a hazy rose-tinted desert landscape film by Pablo Jones-Soler and Bradley Bell of White Lodge, which opened the show.
