British label Universal Works has followed up on the natural hues of its Fall/Winter 2017 capsule with a lighter collection for Spring/Summer 2018. The new collection features a range of classic Universal Works silhouettes, such as baker jackets and double pleated trousers, which have been updated for the warmer months.

One of the key motifs that runs through the collection is the use of prints, with patterns inspired by traditional African prints appearing on everything from shirts and shorts to bucket hats. Other more understated pieces come in a color palette inspired by Cornish summers, with blue, pink and beige tones featuring throughout.
