Rag and Bone S/S 2010 MBFWNYC





















David Neville and Marcus Wainwright continue to put down roots in NYC—the design partners opened their first-ever Rag & Bone shop on Christopher Street earlier this week—but for Spring it was their native England that captured the designers' imaginations. Specifically, they took their inspirations from their birthplace's musical subcultures—punk, mod, ska, etc.—and the uniforms associated with each. On the men's side, it translated quite literally; there were exposed zippers, braces, and precisely cuffed pants. On the women's side, it informed a silhouette: fitted jackets and checked button-downs with matching narrow ties, worn over stovepipe pants tapering to a tight ankle. Tough and rough around the edges. Here are some key looks.


Rag-and-bone man - is a British phrase for a junk dealer.
