It’s the tail end of London Fashion Week, an affair at once classically tailored and brazenly patterned. Punk and proper. High street and avant-garde. It’s impossible to define London’s style, and harder still to peruse all the livestreams, photographs, reviews, and Twitter remarks that emerge from the city’s biannual showcase.

KNWLS Spring/Summer 2022 collection.

Stefan Cooke collaborated with his partner, Jake Burt, for their brand’s standout show entitled Gimme an ‘S.’ It’s unironically preppy: traditional knitwear and newsboy caps, alongside short shorts that could be interpreted as either antiquated—in a schoolboy kind of way—or rather modern, going with the tide of rising menswear inseams.

Mulberry, known for its luxury leather goods, teamed up with Irish designer Richard Malone for a limited edition capsule. The collection reinterprets two of the former’s most well-loved bags: the Bayswater and the Darley. The bags are like good furniture: functional, steady, beautiful. They’re characterized by a certain mid-century simplicity, richly colored in contrasting reds and blues, greens and whites.

KNWLS recently rebranded, having changed its name, logo, and general ethos this year. Appropriately, the KNWLS woman has a very fresh feel. Her looks are edgy and elegant, with some of the youthful eclecticism of urban streetwear: tight-fitting and sexy, adorned with fringe and crossed laces, accessorized with a cowboy hat and maybe pink snakeskin boots; or slouchy, draping, distressed—and still very sexy. Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault, KNWLS’ co-creative directors, are approaching a new sort of femininity, playing cleverly with opposition in form.
