Richard Nicoll A/W 2014

Closing the first day of London Collections: Men, Richard Nicoll's latest outing showcased a punchy, opulent bravado - moving away from many of the subdued street and workwear tones that have left his previous showings somewhat monotone. Departing from a vivid cerulean parka topped with mink, the A/W 2014 collection held a steely duality in the smart mix of flat and shine (or dare I say bold and boring) that comprised each look, be it a metallic bomber over flannel trousers or a stencilled sweater spelling 'brutal' worn with baggy shorts and trailing chequered shirt tails. A folded collar detail in flat grosgrain ribbon was a precursor to further experimentation - a New Wave-inspired series of tucked and pleated formal shirts cut in pastel silk gazar closed the show with a jolt of acid evening fun.
