Chasseur kicked off LFW a little early last week, attending the AW14 Presentation of London based designer Simon Ekrelius, part of Pop Pr’s ever growing stable of designers that is fast marking founder Portia Shaw as the Duchess of London’s alt fashion scene. Entitled ‘Monochromatic’ the sharply minimalist collection of post modern classics recalled the elegance of times gone by married with a distinct take on futurism. Ekrelius takes the demure vintage styles of the forties and fifties combined with hints of traditional Oriental costume, and subverts them with his structural Art Deco inspired shapes creating a unique, and often provocative (see through, and more see through) collection. The Tokyo gothic cocoon coat was a particular favourite in this sublimely noirish collection. Think of Rachael and Pris from genre classic Blade Runner, this is what they would/should be wearing.
