The Kit Neale SS 2015 collection was presented at this season's London Collections Men.
The London-based brand defined the collection by adding vivid color and playful prints that are sure to bring fond childhood memories to mind. Far from being infantile, the collection presents itself as rather cheeky. It's what I would imagine would happen if your childhood self, adolescent self and adult self were all clamoring to dress you at once. The Kit Neale SS 2015 collection serves as a healthy compromise between all three "selves."
The antiquated graphics of days past are accompanied by advertisement-styled visuals to mix things up. If you aren't afraid to be a walking billboard, then this collection definitely has some pieces for you. However, if you're looking to blend in, it's probably not the best choice.
