Utility was the word on everyone’s lips for Matthew Adams Dolan SS19 offering. But don’t think for a second that practical was the priority.

We’re talking kids-in-dad-suits, oversized-style fits, which saw trousers sweeping the floor and suit sleeves skimming way past the fingertips. And colour schemes? 90s aerobic video primary colours, and pastel brights on retro tailoring (kudos to the double-breasted lavender and mint-green).

And different spectrums of texture riffed on one another: gossamer-esque shirting in punchy pinks broke up the rows denim. Oh, and pockets! Pockets galore!
