Let’s start off with that amazing leather jacket, beautiful soft leather and such a stunning colour a rich dark taupe. Note the zips are plastic and the teeth and tape are matched in the same colour. I’m a huge fan of patterned shirts and this one would sit nicely in my wardrobe. The trousers are cut wide but straight, low waisted with a single pleat and a large turn up at the hem completes the look. 

Now this is a suede jacket that exudes style, very 70’s in influence as well with those multi coloured leather patch pockets. Also the leather trim around the pocket is fantastic, the lapels look good as well with the leather panel. Utility bottoms are wide and baggy, great big patch pockets on the front only add to the look.

Colour blocking doesn’t always have to done in big bright colours and this is a great example of working with some amazing colours. The brown suede is contrasted well with that grey / green slate colour. The ribs on the jacket have that wonder stripe of purple, grey and wine running through it which sets off the jacket well. I love the press stud fastening. The bottoms follow with the utility look in both colour and fabric, the contrast colour turn ups are a lovely touch. 

A four button double breasted suit, the cut itself is sharpe but the styling is relaxed and slouched which really works well. The fabric steals the show shiny and almost iridescent.

The first thing that catches my eye on this jacket are those amazing big ribs on the hem and cuff, I love little detailing like that, just changing the width changes the whole look. The colours are fantastic with that geometric pattern. Simple black skirt worn underneath. The khaki trousers are as before with the wide straight leg and the extra large turn up. 

Camo, is stable in menswear whether your using the traditional pattern or like here the colours of a camouflage this one being a dessert camouflage. I just love the bottoms, big wide pockets, baggy styling and Luke the use of that slim utility belt really cool. Summer knits are a must and the simple stripes on this work really well with that rib knit. The wide neck seems to be showing an many SS17 shows and looks fantastic.

These bottoms very much styled like a wader with the extended fabric on the waist they also remind me of the paperbag skirts being sold right now on the high street with the self fabric tied belt. Big and baggy like the rest of the trousers in this collection. I like the lightweight sweatshirt with the leather patch details and also the pattern short with the extra wide collars. Loving this look.

This jacket has a lovely femininity about it which is perfectly styled and of the moment. The coloured edges are fantastic. Lovely ribbed knitwear with the simple block colours, just fantastic. The trousers are just as before.

This is for me a real standout piece in this collection, the knitted button through cardi. The styling is very much the 70’s,the mix of knitwear and leather is fantastic. The finishing touches like the ribs and those big buttons really adds so the whole look of this outfit. The bottoms are in the same technical grey fabric as before.

The western jacket – brilliant version here in suede, especially note the shape of the pockets which are also without the traditional flaps. These earthy tones are really working well and are creating a wonderful palette for SS17.

The single colour – stone on stone on stone, why contrast when you can match? I love this double breasted four button suit. Like before the cut is sharpe and the styling is really relaxed. Perfectly matched with that simple knitted jumper underneath really beautiful.

You know what I’m gonna talking about – yes it’s those ribs but it’s those little details that can really take an item to that next level. I absolutely love this jacket, the pockets are great. Fantastic trousers and great colouring.

Salmon pink – one of the colours of SS17 – this version is slightly darker then what we have seen but that does t make any less beautiful. Again single colour styling, I’ve already purchased a couple items in this shade for my wardrobe as I take my time to build the right outfit. 

Bottega Veneta – for me we can talk about the leather and the suede but what I really love throughout this collection is the colour. Those wonderful earthy tones are a breath of fresh air, the taupe, khaki, stone and that gorgeous salmon pink. The styling is very much influenced from the 70’s and especially the knitwear with the added leather detail and patches simply gorgeous. The utility bottoms are perfectly styled, baggy and great big patch pockets. The paperbag trouser with the self fabric tie is a real star. Wonderful collection.
