<\/p>\n

\"Topman<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2018This. Is. Techno. Cowboy.\u2019 Giddy up and dig out your Stetson, kids, and welcome to Topman Design SS14. The opening look set the tone of the show: a white, silky Western-inspired shirt with black floral detailing and contrast piping paired with double pleated high-waisted trousers and metallic brogues and matching belts. What followed was a working and re-working of this theme. The flowers on the shirts segued into spiders and the silky white shirts soon became silky black bomber jackets.<\/p>\n

Unusually for the spring\/summer shows, the Topman collection didn\u2019t include a single short. Design director Gordon Richardson said he wanted the collection to feel \u2018glamorous\u2019 and as part of that shorts were banned in favour of wide-legged trousers and the odd sleeveless gold gilet. \u2018Topman is always about realism,\u2019 he said. \u2018We\u2019re not here to do crazy designs.\u2019<\/p>\n

As a result of this, the line was something we can imagine on countless boys\u2019 backs next spring. Whereas last season was all about block colour and alpine apr\u00e8s-skiwear, SS14<\/a> was closer to a post-punk London clash with a Nashville dormitory. The whites and burgundies of AW13<\/a> were revisited, but the aesthetic was updated with decorated dinner jackets, retro sunglasses and pretty patterned jumpers. It was all very Topman, but it was also all very fabulous.<\/p>\n
