This season, diverging from most London designers’ desperate need to be uniquely different, Preen’s Thea Bregazzi and Justin Thornton focus their attention on creating truly beautiful clothes. Preen’s high standing collar gabardine coats and low scoop neck silk-jersey empire-waist dresses with looped skirts are wearable constructions distinguished by impeccable tailoring and clean lines. Bregazzi and Thornton’s tailored jackets featuring wide revers and asymmetric bias-cut hems dripping to the waist are great new renditions of a time-old fashion classic.

Volume is indeed the corner stone of Preen’s fall look emphasizing the ‘close-knit’ relationship between fabric and form. Hence, in this collection skirts are gathered, shoulders are exaggerated, sleeves are cuffed, collars are slashed and folds are draped. More is more. Opulence achieved through the manipulation of materials is in.
