Knitwear visionary Mark Fast unveiled his bold Autumn/Winter 2024 collection at London Fashion Week, taking inspiration from 60s futurist architect and designer Joe Colombo. The forward-thinking collection fuses Mark Fast's technical knitwear mastery with cosmic, space-age elements and urban city edge.
Merging Galaxy Chic with Street Style
Mark Fast skillfully blends hints of galactic glam with urban streetwear, juxtaposing oversized, weather-resistant coats with form-fitting knits in neon brights like chartreuse and fuchsia, as well as deep jewel tones like petrol blue and purple. Matching all-in-one denim booted jumpsuits and patent leather thigh-high boots create a space-traveler vibe.
Innovative Silhouettes & Tactile Textures
As a knit connoisseur, Mark Fast utilises 3D knitting techniques to create striking, sensual silhouettes that hug the body. Lush textures like fluffy fringed knits, faux feather embellishments and body-skimming velvet add depth and allure. The tactile knits contrast with glossy latex and patent leather for an unexpected edge.
Pushing Genderless Boundaries
Mark Fast's designs embody a gender-neutral spirit, resonating with both men and women who admire quality craftsmanship and aren't afraid to challenge fashion norms. The bold cosmic-urban styles exude a fearless confidence.
