It was a pleasure this London Collections Men to have a chat with designer, Rachel
James in the designer showrooms about her new collection this season.

The collection is based on James’ annoyance that her computer, filled
with her ideas, glitches a lot. The whole collection was bursting with
prints, knit and exciting fabrics all made to look like computer
glitches.

One of the pieces was a giant scarf made out of seven sections, then
stitched together to make a unique piece that has a wonderful effect
when wrapped around yourself.

Last season and this season as well, James’ dares to use an almost
day glow green in her collection, which she confesses to be one of her
favourite colours. Normally it would be shied away from, but James’ use
of print over the top of the long coat in this season, and the knit that
was used on the jumper this colour in last season, makes it work
incredibly well. It is nice to see a designer that experiments with knit doing well
and I look forward to the next collection. I think we need more knit in
the world.
