Complex Geometries

Complex Geometries is one of the few labels that actually delivers on its claim to create conceptual yet wearable pieces. Designer Clayton Evans reconsiders some unisex wardrobe classics and has the technical skill in draping to really pull it off. Each piece challenges how a t-shirt or dress should work, yet they're still so fluid and beautiful it makes me want to move to Iceland and wear them every day. He even manages to make clothes you can wear in multiple ways without looking like you put your pants on backward.

It takes a lot of work to make something look this simple, and the black, white and grey colour palette helps to keep everything looking clean and fresh. The Spring/Summer 10 collection (below) was photographed by Tommy Ton of Jak and Jil, and you can see the whole collection at the Complex Geometries website. I found it hard to see some of the detail in those shots (especially the black garments) so head to the online store to get a closer look at how all the draping works.
