You wouldn’t expect a floral print from a Jonathan Saunders show, known as he is for a more geometric way of working.

But for spring summer, we saw floral the Saunders way; a muted, almost abstract Hawaiian flower found on elbow-length shirts and full pleated skirts.
He mixed this with bands and stripes of colour lain vertically or horizontally across fabric. The big trend for next season – transparency – was delivered by gauze blouses under bandeau dresses and the final series of black sheer with sequin graphics and PVC trims were light and modern.
The collection married all of summer’s most wanted things; colour, femininity and sex appeal
