As part of a series of exclusive design partnerships this summer, MR PORTER.COM just unveiled its partnership with Raf Simons on an exclusive floral capsule collection. The collaboration is alongside that of French designer Alexandre Mattiusi which went live last week (see image under the cut and more here) on a 13 piece capsule and the eponymous Alexander Wang on a collection which is set to launch next Tuesday 4th June.
The Raf Simons collection is pretty colour heavy (most of you know that I am a monochrome advocate), it features hand-painted prints on t-shirts and sweats, plus formalwear including a blazer and white shirt, and unsurprisingly high top sneakers. I do love the shorts and printed navy bomber jacket though. The nod to the Cobain era comes through strong once again…remember the Nirvana audio extracts from the SS13 film by Pierre Debusschere?
