Emerging British photographer Rosie Matheson presented her “BOYS” exhibition in London’s Black & White building. The show focuses on her project of the same name with one of the images having won the Portrait of Britain Award back in 2016. With this ongoing series, Matheson aims to explore “the relationship between males and the idea of masculinity pressured by society,” she told Dazed. Since starting the project in 2015, Matheson has captured over 100 portraits of male subjects in Manchester, London, Brighton, Paris, Los Angeles, Hawaii, Cape Town, and other regions. The presentation was accompanied by a photo book and a short documentary made in collaboration with filmmaker Kaj Jeffries.

“At first, it really was just about shooting males; they come as they are – natural, effortlessly cool, and have this carefree attitude on the outside, but a sensitivity on the inside,” she expressed. “However, after meeting, photographing and getting to know so many of them now, I began to understand and really get into the deeper side of the project.”

rag & bone Fall/Winter 2015 Lookbook

rag & bone looks to flip the script with its upcoming fall/winter collection, doing away with what is customary and expected in the realm of contemporary fashion. In transforming knits to wovens and awarding your expected tailored pieces with a more loose and comfortable fit, an additional noteworthy concept behind the FW15 range is urban armor purveyed via street style.
We see heavily-layered looks highlighting predominantly dark tones—grey, black, navy—with touches of sage, rust and ivory thrown into the mix. A variety of materials have been utilized on numerous coats and jackets, from rubber-coated linen to nylon and more. Blanket coats and various hoodies are also present alongside an impressive array of accessories, namely stylish beanies and scarves.
To further showcase the upcoming fall/winter selection, rag & bone has enlisted a pair of notable dancers, Mikhail Baryshnikov and Lil Buck, to promote the range in a unique manner.
