I was unfortunatley left a little bored after I saw the menswear winner at Graduate Fashion Week.

I completley appreciate the workmanship, and in no way am I denying his win, but what would this blog be if I didn't voice my opinion? 

The excecution of the collection is immaculate however, I personally feel it didn't seem fresh and though his use of historic patterns were commendable, I was only left feeling like it had been done before.

The black panel detailing and vent on the jacket are great but it seems to be overlooked. I do however love the black knee-length trench.

Maybe i'm overlooking something which the judges didn't?

Then again, who am I to judge?
