Mark Thomas Taylor SS13 Collection
With his unique background and personal experiences infiltrating every area of his work, London-based designer Mark Thomas Taylor (MTT) creatively incorporates cultural and environmental influences into everything he produces. Having travelled extensively when younger, MTT’s Asian/British roots have set the foundations of his entire approach to fashion – resulting in a design style that combines British edge and street cool with Asian colour and vibrancy. The latest SS13 lookbook sees an urban setting and easy, casual styling produce an honest portrayal of the ‘MTT London’ man. Bold graphic prints shirts and tees in mixed hues are paired with distressed denims and a range of accessories to deliver an everyday look with an edge. The intelligent styling of the collection ensures this look is accessible and appealing to those looking to experiment, particularly with print. Standout pieces from the range include the ‘Leopard Shirt’, ‘The Maui’ and the ‘Tie Dye Tee’. With all three referencing current industry trends, it’s simply a case of picking the one that suits your personal style. Delivering a playful and wearable alternative to mainstream menswear, Mark Thomas Taylor’s unique cultural fusion fashion will no doubt continue to grow both in popularity and creative recognition moving forward.
