About JLHT Autumn/Winter 2015 Collection
JLHT2015 is an Autumn/Winter 2015 Menswear collection, designed/created/made with Harris Tweed cloth. Thanks to Harris Tweed Authority Educational Trust from whom I got 10m of this amazing cloth, and who gave me this one of a kind opportunity to create my own collection using the best possible fabrics. I also purchased some more Harris Tweed to complement the selection I already got from HTA. Furthermore, the Harris Tweed cloth is mixed with different fabrics, such as wool, lighter wool blends and quilt. It is a tailored street wear collection of 6 outfits:
6 pairs of trousers, 6 t-shirts (3 long and 3 short sleeves), 2 jackets, 1 coat, 2 wraps and 2 scarves (19 garments in total). With the JLHT2015 Collection, I also wanted to re-invent how tweed is approached and worn, making it 'cooler' and introducing it to younger generations. I see the collection as a hybrid between a cool hipster and an English gentleman (who are known for their love for tweed).
Final garments will be presented during our Graduate Show on 10th of June in London.
