Mood board: Katie Hillier and Luella Bartley, the British duo now at the helm of Marc by Marc Jacobs, looked to the iconic designs of English textile designer William Morris when it came to their latest collection. Working with original patterns supplied by the William Morris Gallery, the designers incorporated several of Morris' intricate floral prints as the graphic foundation of their new offering. Instead of taking the designs at face value, the pair kept things modern by realising the patterns in bright blues and crimson; colours that are increasingly being recognised as the label's prefered shades.
Best in show: Despite the decorative quality of the prints, the collection still faithfully adhered to the rebellious, anarchistic spirit that Hillier and Bartley have cultivated since their debut. Structured bell-skirted dresses had a punk-like quality, while slogans like 'Solidarity', 'Our Future' and 'Choice' adorned sleeves and trouser legs.
Finishing touches: Handbags and backpacks took the shape of DIY toolboxes. Decorated with oversized studs that resembled rivets and made from leather, they were a playful, collectible and a suitable embodiment of the Marc by Marc Jacobs ethos.
