Samuel Ross of A-COLD-WALL* continues to elevate experimentations for the brand’s seasonal collections. For Fall/Winter 2018, the British designer underwent several color studies and material testing to develop new innovative silhouettes that blurry the boundary between avant-garde and ready-to-wear. Highlighted attributes include boiled hand-threaded wools, thermo-reactive nylons, raw materials and deconstructable garments that offer customizable wear options.

As for the colors utilized in the collection, the label referenced “sensitive coding of palettes found within British establishments,” as per a statement. View the Fall/Winter 2018 menswear campaign above with a few behind-the-scenes snaps sprinkled in.
