Nicholas Daley’s keen sense for fashion is matched only by his taste in music. After last season’s brilliant live jazz performance, he upped the ante tonight with a fashion show that kicked off an entire night of events at Earth, the landmark East London venue. His musician girlfriend Nabihah Iqbal came up with the title of the new collection, “The Abstract Truth,” and shared billing with UK dub legend Mala among other artists at the after-party.
To warm up the crowd for the fashion portion of the evening, he enlisted a trio of young South London musicians—Rago Foot, Kwake Bass, and Wu-Lu—to perform a live score. Borrowing from the world of experimental jazz and psychedelic rock, the music gave song to the wide-ranging references in the new collection, including afro-futurism and the black abstract art movement of the 1970s.
Daley has a knack for spinning utility clothing with a sense of specialness. In place of camo, he used a handsome khaki green jacquard patterned with hand-drawn lines to elevate his fishing-style vests and Crombie coats. The designer’s commitment to supporting local craftspeople is ongoing.
