Personally, I find it hard to keep up with Kim Jones' travels. A quick look at his Instagram account could render even a seasoned traveller giddy with the way he jets across the four corners in search of inspiration and excitement. For S/S 2015 he went to Rajasthan in Northern India and wowed by the city of Jaipur in all its rosy wonder, returned all wrapped up in the spangle of Shisha mirror embroideries and a palette of sunset orange, desert sand, midnight blue and shocking pink. How such potent inspirations could remain understated is a testament to Jones' deft hand and eye, which he applied to chevron silk shirts billowing from mohair and silk trousers, butter-soft nubuck outerwear, and tailoring worn with ribbed roll necks for a touch of 1970's Indian colonialism. Jones' designs require a compulsory zoom lens (he is detail-obsessed) and this season's piece de resistance was an ornate spinning sundial hanging from a deerskin doctor's bag. On even closer inspection, lapel pins spelled 'volez', 'voguez' and 'voyagez' - steal, vogue and voyage - three mischievous key words in Jones' map to the stars.
