Now a mainstay on the fashion calendar, Topshop Unique present two catwalk collections and two pre-collections a year. Their Resort 16 collection journeys through the decadence of Soho’s nocturnal world – think a Pepto-Bismal pink crushed velvet two piece suit and dress, a draped silver lamé power blouse, a long-line leopard print shearling coat inspired by Margot Tennenbaum’s style, a thigh-grazing beatnik Breton knit dress, a series of heavily embellished leathers and a supple leather polo neck mini dress.

Nodding to the 80s – with the refinement of the present – the collection references great British style and heritage, building on from the classic Brit girl we saw on the runway at AW15.

The collection drops in stores November 2015.

J.W. Anderson is the master of desirable colour-ways  and clever cuts. For his Resort 16 collection, Anderson mixes the perfect blend of bold dominating stripes and sharp tailored cuts with polka dot prints and floaty fabrics. Anderson’s famed skill at placing masculine and feminine motifs together under one umbrella, in a way that is relevant to the modern wearer, is as present as ever in Resort 16, with floral frills meeting against sharp cuts of dyed leather and dark denim.

Killer knee high leather boots with spiral ruffles – some in metallic silver and bronze, others in charcoal black and beige – offer a solid base to the designs that are dappled with blues, reds, white, black and greys, along with Anderson’s well known stripes in a rainbow of colours. To balance it all, primary coloured rib knits are offered to neutralise the collection, as well as carefully placed elegant accessories of asymmetrical disk earrings and bags in white, black and electric blue.

With a definite fragrance or artist’s muse in the air, models walked down a carpeted runway clad in berets, gilded with gold accessories that seemed moulded to the skin. A picture of the preppy professional we have come to respect and expect from Ralph. Nautical prints kept the colour palette to a muted level, lifted by polka dots and panel invoked stripes the garments hung off the models in effortless succession.

From a shift dress and pyjama bottoms to full fur ruff, a variety of silhouettes and top heavy textures out shone even the chandelier, which came to act as a hazy halo above each model posing for the camera. A nod to nautical foremost, yet with hushed tones alluding to a sophisticated post-Cannes night out.

The difference in attire was something to marvel at as necklines were raised and dropped as quickly as they appeared and fabrics ranging from chiffon to woven metallics. Proportions blocked by the stripes of layered turtle necks with sheer palazzo pants stinted the collection’s accolade of being “Resort” as interchangeable pieces could easily be worn for all seasons.
