SMITH-WYKES unveiled its SS14 behind-the-scenes video. With this collection, SMITH-WYKES looks to reinterpret an outsider’s perspective on Japanese design as seen through 1960‘s film, fashion and architecture. Inspiration is taken from Japanese influences from this classic decade of style, suggesting an encounter of old crafts, textural shapes and sharp modernity.

This functional collection is styled by combining non-traditional colour pairings. SMITH-WYKES suggests matching ensembles such as shorts and denim jackets or four pocket safari shirts combined with soft pleated trousers, to reintroduce the idea of leisure suiting for a new generation.
