On Friday 6th March, the Randolph Hotel in Oxford played host to the
SS14 Oxford Fashion Week’s Cosmopolitan Show. Attracting around 150
guests to see the eight brands being showcased in a journey of the
imagination through a dreamland of candy pastels and cloudy whites
before heading to a the chaotic, dark world of the nightmare which saw
Jeff Banks suits take to the runway paired with Venetian style masks
amongst the striking silhouettes.
Founded in 2009, Oxford Fashion Week seeks to present a set of shows
every year, which stretch the imagination and see their director’s
present their ideas to the packed audiences. Directed by Gem Latimer,
the Cosmopolitan Show was the third show of the week, with the glorious
chandeliers of the Randolph Ballroom acting as the perfect backdrop.
Four male models were head to toe Jeff Banks for the finale section of
the show, highlighting a modern era in men’s suiting, where suit jackets
and waistcoats can be worn with jeans, the epitome of sleek tailoring
meeting the a more casual masculinity
