nothingnothing's designer Julian Roberts doesn't follow fashion trends, fads or seasons. Instead, the label is like an evolving fashion project through which Roberts explores his ideas of shape and form. This is the label's third showing at Fashion Week (last season it was sponsored by the Marks and Spencer New Generation scheme) and instead of opting for a conventional catwalk show, Roberts co-founded the creative collective called The Grey Area with Russell Sage and presented a film with a live sound score (by Swiss Maderian techno producers Access58) alongside his collection at the ICA. Entitled 1/1 because only the original garment will ever be available - the collection features raw, hand cut pieces, freehand embroidery and hand-painted details. Prints include girly pink flowers and an incredible computer generated print showing desktop folders. Innovative pattern-cutting techniques which produce swirls, growths and bizarre fabric directions, give the clothes a magically modern feel.
