Everyday discoveries.
Unexpected possibilities.
and the garments that bring it together.
Pier 24
The joy of exploration.
A menswear collection shaped by nomadic living, everyday discovery and the colours of spring and summer. Accidentally Wes Anderson, Claes Oldenburg’s sculptures and familial style legacies become starting points for playful colour, pattern and self-expression.

A starting point in structure
A 1950s walking coat, generous pockets and architectural references inform the first silhouettes.
Colour, close up
Stripes and pieced fabric bring the collection’s palette into the material itself.
Cut & construction
From a line to a garment.
The collection develops through drawing, pattern cutting and repeated fittings. Panel lines, curved seams and pocket shapes carry architectural ideas into garments, while calico toiles test proportion and construction before colour is introduced.

Thinking in three dimensions
Calico fittings explore volume, panel placement and the relationship between the body and the garment.
Every pocket considered
Explorer Shorts development brings together layered pockets, woven belt loops, technical drawings and construction details.
Everyday exploration
Made for moving through the day.
A pale blue coat, a white shirt and yellow shorts translate the research into a finished look. Alongside tailored pieces, jersey and calico studies explore an easy wardrobe through fit, fabric and small details.
