The Bite Magazine - Autumn/Winter 2019 - Issue 26

bite catwalk mens Raeburn R aeburn’s AW19 collection felt refined this season, with a well-thought-out and considered offering of wearable outfits with interesting details. Classic military-style khaki green utility jackets had statement pocket details on the sleeves. Camouflage was a common thread throughout the collection, with colour pops of orange filtered into the garments as it took on a more patchwork approach, combining elements of the past with modern aesthetics, and adding a freshness while bringing it to a street style look. Structured backpacks made an appearance with statement printed straps. Crossbody bags appeared on numerous outfits, showcasing a clear trend this season.Dark purple became another addition to the collection’s colour palette, adding a nice contrast against patches of bright orange seen in a series of jackets with contrasting black details. Big puffy coats appeared with reflective stripes and greyscale camouflage speckled with orange added interest to the collection’s oversized puffer jackets, matching a series of polka dot t-shirts. The collection felt very considered, from shoes to the glasses and the hats. The styling was done in a way that showed off full matching looks that could be mixed and matched to emphasise different details. It was straightforward in terms of silhouettes but with interesting utility details. Buckles, hooks, loops, clasps and utility pockets enhanced the details on jacket sleeves and trouser legs, fitting it with the season’s trends of hardware details. https://www.raeburndesign.co.uk
