River Island have teamed up with LC:M newcomer Joespeh Turvery to bring us a Spring\/Summer 14 collection. <\/p>\n
Christmas has come a little early for one young designer as River Island, who previously worked with British designer T.Lipop, has announced through their Design Forum Initiative that Joseph Turvey will be collaborating with them for their Spring\/Summer 2014 collection.<\/p>\n
Turvey, known for his eye-catching illustrations, graduated with a BA in Fashion Design in 2010 and later went on to graduate with a Masters in Menswear Design Technology at London College of Fashion. Turvey was able to gain more attention with his collections where he was able to produce signature prints and bold colour palates, leading many to call the Fashion East designer one of the most refreshing and innovative designers of his generation.<\/p>\n
The capsule collection will be debuted at London Collections: Mens, and will also be available in selected stores and the River Island online site from the end of February. A hero element is implemented in the River Island collection, with a not so subtle pink camouflage throughout all 16 pieces. Also included in the 90s inspired street wear are neoprene accessories and matching jersey sets. A film has been produced, which has been directed by renowned director Alex Turvey, to celebrate the launch, and will be presented at London Collections: Mens in January. The film is to celebrate the launch and is one of many films that have been curated by the Fash\/On panel that aims to support and develop film in the fashion industry. WONDERLAND spoke to Turvey about his up-coming collaboration with the high-street retailer and what we can expect from the show next month.<\/p>\n
