Mood board: A coterie of chaps sauntered around a metal grid structure wearing a series of relaxed, modern classics. Taking inspiration from American minimalist artist Richard Serra's early experiences making sculpture using rubber and fibreglass, the clothes were texturally eclectic in soft suede, coated linen and beaten cotton.
Scene setting: The composer Philip Glass once worked as an assistant for Serra (the two befriended each other in Paris in the early sixties) and so the show's fitting score was a classical string quartet. Q Strings reconstructed a series of modern tracks that were played live; the melody elevated the easiness of the clothes to a level of quotidian elegance.
Finishing touches: Suede and pebble-grain leather rucksacks were worn over unlined tailoring. Spencer's relaxed Judo pants - in technical fabric, plaid and heavy cotton - were worn with a bare ankle and a series of handsome two-tone sneakers.
