A Scottish adjective: the word 'plummy' found its place at Pringle's A/W 2014 showing yesterday, with a decidedly bruised colour palette of indigo, claret and ruby red offset with optic white across the collection's technical knitwear and spare tailoring offer. Cellophane yarns and perforation techniques were amongst the most innovative ideas proposed by the house's designer Massimo Nicosia. However, these felt sterile when opposed to the luxurious hand of a cashmere roundneck in a tufted, laddered check. Micro-knitted turtlenecks (almost jersey) appeared as an on-trend styling option, gelling with the long line silhouette of a side-buckled coat, or layered under the house's iconic argyle updated with a stained-glass effect. Another icon, Scotland's thistle flower, crept up the side of a cobalt sweater as a discreet, shadowy intarsia.
