UK’s new design star

BRITISH design whiz kid Jonathan Anderson led the charge on the second day of London Fashion Week with a celebration of individualism that fused inspirations including the natural world, the military and far-eastern tradition.

The 30-year-old Northern Ireland designer, renowned for his innovative creations, played on recurring motifs in his autumn/winter 2016 collection, which was unveiled under the close gaze of Vogue chief Anna Wintour and British It-Girl Alexa Chung.

Anderson, creator of the J.W. Anderson label, made repeated use of leather cowls unzipped over the shoulders, A-line tops, skirts with upturned rubber tricolor hems and chiffon sleeves.

Each seat along the narrow winding catwalk had a card carrying a quote from late interior designer David Hicks, which read: “The excitement of today is the freedom of the individual to make his own choice and the vast range of possibilities from which he may choose.”
