Saturna

Blue Nude ~ Slow Fashion Brand - Pender Denim Trouser

 

Saturna is our second slow fashion collection, inspired by the mystery of the Pacific Northwest.

At once moody, peaceful, and free-spirited, the Pacific Northwest is a landscape of mixed emotion and terrain. Consisting of the Canadian province of British Columbia and US states such as Washington and Oregon, this part of the world is home to wild mountains, misty rainforests, and the hypnotizing Pacific Ocean. The light is different here, creating a haze that turns these dynamic pieces of the environment into simple shapes: mountains become layered waves of blue, the sea and the sky blend into one another, and the forest abstracts into a tangled mass of dark green.

We teamed up with Leeds based multimedia artist Jamie House, who has spent time in Canada's Pacific Northwest, to create the collection's prints. Jamie's desire to experiment led to his exploration of ceramic and glass paints on paper which, when coming in contact with each other, reacted in unpredictable ways. The reactions were then digitally scanned and further deconstructed to create abstract references to the colours and elements of the Pacific Northwest Landscape.

The Saturna collection is a decidedly darker psychedelia - rainy blues, forest greens, and earthy browns are printed and knitted across chunky merino wools, organic drill cottons, and lustrous silk.

Released for AW21.
