…

His collection for s/s 2014 is of muted colour palette –

exuding an effortless ease, an element of comfort

and a full measure of understated elegance.

Fabrics used were light-weight,

allowing pieces to billow and flow.

Styling with accessories were minimal to non-existent,

permitting the clothes to speak softly but with

maximum impact.
