This Rachel James Coat Boasts a Striking and Artistic Print

— April 6, 2015 — Fashion
Based in the UK, Rachel James recently gained praise for her debut menswear collection, a range that blends floral jackets and tees with color-blocked pieces that draw inspiration from 90s nostalgia.

The fashion designer's collection is titled 'GRANNY FLOWER/MAN POWER', a name inspired by its psychedelic prints and artistic concept. Its key pieces, like this floral jacket boast a vibrant print and are displayed in a blended palette of white and pastel tones.

This particular trench is long and structured, featuring a wide collar and a light-weight materiality. The coat is priced at a $6000 rate and is loosely inspired by a traditional motorcycle jacket silhouette, which is made longer in this case. Overall, the piece blends artistry with function, two qualities that are a requirement for those ruling the fashion retail market right now.
