Patrick Grant has pushed further away from the sartorial heritage of E Tautz season by season, flexing his own design muscle by mixing the sporting history of his adopted label with a personal, urban sensibility that showed serious promise for S/S 2015. Vagaries of working-class Brighton tourists were incorporated into his no-nonsense line up of black, navy, taupe and toffee brown separates (that's right, barely a single straight-up suit), an idea of bleak seaside summers that included wide, rolled-up raw denim for wading in the shallows, and flared, tailored shorts striped like deckchairs. Utility outerwear added to his worker's tale; topstitched jean jackets, zipped Harringtons and roomy parkas came in a sporty mix of gabardines, flyaway silk nylon and flat cool wool - their full proportions often balanced with a cropped trouser or bare legs and a tricked-out sandal boot.
