Pringle of Scotland S/S 2015

Although the knitted world of Pringle designer Massimo Nicosia continues to evolve in technical leaps and bounds, he opted to show his S/S 2015 men's range in the former Astor House, a 19th century neo-gothic mansion in Victoria, amidst intricate woodwork and the floral wallpapers of one William Morris. That heritage backdrop allowed Nicosia breathing space to move back and forward through Pringle's extensive archives and into new territory for S/S, a collection that departed from a subtle 1960s golfing theme, utilising horizontal and linear planes to splice knitwear into pieces like a powder blue suit jacket and two-tone mackintosh coat. Chequered and grid knits abounded in the trim, often monotone silhouettes, with putty greys, taupe and petrol blue grounding shots of hot orange and a deep teal. Worth a special note was Pringle's classic cricket sweater reborn with 3D printed laddering down the chest, and the closing crewneck pull: it replicated William Morris' 'Green Pimpernel' floral motif in a rich forest green jacquard.
