Saul Nash launches EMBRACE. A collection that is rooted in gesture, intimacy, and physical connection, and continues the London-based designer’s movement-led approach, merging sportswear influences,tailoring, and military wear with a spiritual and hedonistic tint.
Encouraging the customer to embrace a more sensual side to an everyday look, we see the stretch Henley shirt, suctioned tight to the body with an asymmetric fastening that can be unbuttoned to expose the nipple.
The intimate act of EMBRACE is echoed in compression long-sleeve tops, both of which have a handprint stretched across the chest, as if the wearer is being held. An interaction is also gestured to with a heavyweight ISKO denim twinset consisting of a two-way zipped work jacket and barrel leg, kinetic-cut jeans – both laser engraved with a hazy motif of two bodies intertwined.
Designed to move with the body, the brand’s signature kinetic-cut flight jackets, tracksuit staples, and sport vests, are all also present in the new offering.
Tailoring also gets expanded for SS26 through hooded Oxford shirts in water-resistant cotton poplin available in workwear plaid.
A muted palette of greys, pale yellows, and soft purples reinforces the collection’s tension between structure and fluidity.
Shot in East London on dancer’s from within Saul’s community, EMBRACE blurs the lines between structure and softness, utility and expression.
Part one of EMBRACE launches on www.saulnash.com, with the full collection arriving in drops throughout the season
