During the study at Central Saint Martins,
the young British menswear designer Alex Mullins was a runner up in the “L´Oreal
Professional Young Designer of the Year Award”. After that he completes the MA
(Menswear) at the Royal College of Art, graduating in 2012.
Prizes didn´t stop here. While he was
awarded a full scholarship with Kopenhagen Fur at the RCA, was also nominated
for the Dazed and Confused/Casio G-Shock “Spirit of Toughness” award.
Before setting up his brand in spring 2013,
Alex worked with few renowned and from the design-aesthetic point, different
designers, such as Alexander McQueen, Jeremy Scott, Diane von Furstenberg, Dirk
Bikkembergs and Kanye West.
Mullins showed us his passion for denim (and
the word “denim” is used quite a lot from now on) at his third collection by
playing with proportions and “tousling” the common work-wear into something unconventional.
Presented at the BFC Presentation Space, his F/W 2015/2016 consist of raw-seems
turned outside in the pleating part of denim pants, elongated denim shirt-inspired
jackets and the 70´s vibe with velvet and corduroy suits, composed by
trapeze-shaped, ankle length, high-waist pants, paired with matching elongated,
one button blazer or cropped, denim-inspired jackets. Turning primitive ideas on their head would say
he.
