Hamish Morrow

[metal-on-metal]

I agree with Astrid and Spacemiu. Morrow was very futuristic but not in a completely cold, emotionless sort of way. These clothes have a sweet, feminine feel to them that you can't always find with severe techno minimalism. I like it.

a certain young man will LOVE this collection

not to mention a certain young-at-heart fashion icon (me) dearest acid-ious, plus all those forward stylish FSpotters whose posts you seem to have overlooked somehow, muah-kies

 

[HBoogie]

What a fantastic presentation...fascinating but totally unpretentious. I'd wear just about all of it. B)

Another one of my favorites so far.

it does have a bit more than alexandre-which is why i was only joking. by far,this is my favorite of the season,despite what i said elsewhere

All you ladies,rock,btw!! B)

Acid*,perhaps you should step away from your Marie Claire readership stereotype,because not all women like things that are grotesquely uninteresting and souless.

 

[Astrid21]

Enough of the insults, people. To each their own.

 

[Urban Stylin]

imaginative actually!

 

[pinkcouture]

Very unique. I'm not really crazy about it but it came out alright over all.

what happened to hamish morrow?

 

[arlekindearrabal]

yeah, what happened to him?

 

[tricotineacetat]

I think Hamish had both difficulties financially and with his manufacturer, so that in the end, forced him to cancel F/W 2004 entirely. He did this capsule collection for Yoox, selling one of a kind jackets sewn out of football shirts and duchess satin which I think are still up on their side, among the more experimental "Space Blanket" covered denim and windbreakers. I also heard he's done some limited edition Sunglasses for Dover Street Market, but the last thing I heard was that he unleashed a new collection for F/W 2006, focussing on highly technical fabrics that are using nanotechnology... I haven't seen any of it, though.

 

[arlekindearrabal]

wow, nanotechnology... would like to see that
thx tricotine

 

[Miss Galliano]

Well, here is a video from 2004 that I just recently saw...something to look at until we find some newer works

[found]

On hamishmorrow.com it states that the site is launching fall 2006 and the S/S collection is available at Dover Street Market as well as a few other shops...and even though it is supposed to be on net-a-porter, I don't see him listed.

Ok one last thing, I found a statement by Suzanne Lee who is the Creative Director of Hamish Morrow which says that they worked with NanoTex - a company that makes garments that resist spills, repel and release stains, resist static and provides the "coolest comfort" - they also have clients that include Old Navy, L.L Bean, and Eddie Bauer.

I looked it up because I had no idea what nanotechnology was.

thanks for the information, found...

would you mind posting your references, I'd like to read it as well!

No problem...

Info on Suzanne Lee: http://www.arts.ac.uk/research/17469.htm I wonder if her book about technologically advanced clothing techniques is interesting. I don't remember ever coming across it.

The website of Nanotex is http://www.nano-tex.com/

I've actually found quite a few neat examples of 'advanced clothing' but I guess it's innappropriate to post them here and I can't find a thread about it or maybe I'm not getting the wording right for the search.
