Autumn / Winter 26

Raw Ground

Raw Ground began with a bolt of lambswool that had never been dyed. Held up to the window it was not one colour but a dozen — oat, ash, and a warm grey the mill called fawn and would not guarantee twice.

So the collection is built to let cloth behave. The coat is cut two sizes away from the body and has no fastening above the waist. The knits are made in one piece from the neck down, which is why the sleeves have no seam. Nothing here is lined, and nothing is dyed.
