The Alice Carvill-White Autumn/Winter 2012 collection is eccentric and avant-garde. The London-based designer, who is a graduate from the University of Westminster, explores exaggerated proportions and experiments with fur as a boundless material.
The designer’s visual concept for this collection centers around the practice of blending natural and man-made fibers. Though her work is simplistic and impeccably tailored, its subtle, yet avant-garde details are what make it stand apart from the crowd.
From layered shoulder panelling and oversized sleeves to belted fur coats, the Alice Carvill-White Autumn/Winter 2012 menswear collection marries modern minimalism with past-era ruggedness where roughly textured furs are more of a homage to ancient man rather than a representation of wealth and excess.
