Bode: The refreshing perspective that designer Emily Adams Bode brings to her eponymous menswear label couldn’t be more on point. Fusing workwear silhouettes with female oriented crafts such as quilting, mending and applique, Bode’s latest collection was a colourful pastiche of corduroy, Fair Isle knits and denim, brimming over with nostalgic, ephemeral touches; for example, a raincoat came paired with a collection of paper milk bottle caps. Be it working with denim fabric from the last remaining American mills or repurposed vintage and antique textiles, Bode’s handcrafted aesthetic elegantly manages to look back while moving forward.
