RUNWAY: Neil Barrett FW19
Neil Barrett has been able to create a harmonious marriage between graphics and sportswear and for FW19, he seemed to throw caution to the wind and embrace the high paced life of booming metropolises such as Tokyo. This was evidenced by the prints in the opening looks while a wilder spirit ran rampant throughout the rest of the collection with its embrace of animal prints and infusing them with slick fabrics like a techno-orange colored trench to create modern and subversive wears. It was a slight departure for the Belgian designer but one that aimed to appeal to his ever-growing customer base.
