concept

This is a luxury sportswear collection taking inspiration from ski wear and argyle patterns from golf wear. Ross’s signature style was bold and graphic which is why he used refreshing and zesty colours to create abstract, modernist prints. The shapes, made from silk jersey and designed in collaboration with ITS#SIX finalist Oden Wilson, are intentionally simple, effortlessly elegant, containing foam padding at the hemline, taking futuristic references from science fiction to bring a dynamic statement to the catwalk.
