This season's Wood Wood collection is inspired by the "Summer of Love", that took place first in 1967’s San Francisco – centre of the Hippie movement, and the later “Second Summer of Love” in Great Britain around 1988-89, where rave culture and Acid House exploded. The collection pulls in elements from the two historic movements and is guided into modernity with a combination of tailoring and street inspired items as well as sports references.
Subtle colourways like puce and brown tones provide the base, along with classic navy, antique whites, army colours and grey melanges. This toned down base is brought into life by blues and yellows and the unique prints: a distorted animal pattern, electric coloured floral's and an ethnic bead print.
Fabrics include two-toned suiting wools, crinkled nylon in block panels, printed denim, track suit jersey and printed transparent silk organza. Working with iconic styles such as trench coats, bomber jackets, wind-breakers and track-tops on both the men’s and the women’s lines all helps to emphasise the unisex look which is more apparent than ever this season.
