The Unkempt Gentleman

Léo Portier-Tock

Location: Manchester, United Kingdom
University/College: Manchester Metropolitan University Specialisms: Menswear
My collection explores the caricature in everyday life; told through the wardrobe malfunction as well as improperly dressing as this regency nobleman character with whom he does not fit. My muse wears anything and wears it carelessly but my designs use this disruption as inspiration for ornament. I have explored this through trompe-oeil and disruptive silhouettes, creasing and faded colour palettes. It is a contradiction between the refined and unrefined.
