This season for Autumn-Winter 2020, Tamara Ralph channels the spirit and vision of being universally unbound by a region, culture or way of life. Presenting the international explorer – a muse whose style is inspired by diversity and whose clothing is an expression of her readiness to take on the world – each look is a reflection of a moment in time, a place, a feeling.
Donning Shetland cable knit cardigan dresses and Tartan wool box-shouldered overcoats, Fair Isle ski suits and urban padded puffer jackets, our modern heroine hails from the Scottish moors one day and the mountains of Chamonix the next, playfully mixing and matching winter silhouettes with utilitarian staples.
As night falls, camel military-style trench coats and paratrooper jumpsuits in camouflage-denim patchwork give way to Grecian silhouettes, bell sleeve midi-dresses and sensual kimono-style eveningwear in silk Sakura thread-work or velvet gothic floral prints – each symbolic of adventures experienced from the far corners of Europe, to Asia and beyond.
A sartorial reflection of all continents travelled and a nostalgic representation of the living moments that define us, the collection is not only a fusion of individual memories, but also a culmination of influences from women the world over.
