Based in Stockholm, Sweden, Per Gotesson studied at Beckmans College of Design and graduated in June 2013. His new collection, entitled “Poor Unfortunate Souls” is his BA collection and focuses on individuality. The young man that he is showcasing is a contemporary pirate – he is an outsider, who dresses with flair and originality whilst not deviating from the menswear pieces that we are all familiar with. Trousers are cropped, and tailored sweatpants come in a playful but chic slashed electric blue. Latex was heavily cut and slashed throughout the range and interspersed with webbed fishnets, emphasising the rebel seaman outsider that is trying to assert himself as an individual. Tops and outerwear came in oversize neoprene with simple motifs, in black, white, blood orange and fiery red. Innovative and conceptual, this was a brave and exciting range from new talent.
