Reiss is a modern, global fashion brand offering stylish womenswear, menswear and accessories based in the UK with branches all over the world.

Its philosophy of holding creativity at its heart guides Reiss through its international business development. This year, Reiss was inspired by the glamorous golden era of Hollywood — there’s a sense of discomfort and an anarchic desire for change, the creative restlessness of time gone by for their Spring/Summer 2015 collection.

Also taking inspiration from Warhol’s 70s Manhattan, its women’s evening wear

takes a relaxed, cultured approach with BRAMLEY fluid tuxedo jumpsuit, ADELA tiered maxi dress and DILETTA draped asymmetric tuxedo skirt.

A raconteur residing in a luxurious lifestyle, she possesses a taste for the cutting edge and is both elegant and incomparable.

Celebrating the pioneering spirit, this collection embarks on a creative journey. A harmony of silhouette and vibrant color, treasured surface embellishment reflects a collector’s attitude blended with craftsmanship in ELSON devoré laser cut dress, SPIRA nude devoré t-shirt, KEELY lace sweatshirt and FILEY leather skirt with embroidered lace. An interest in tomorrow’s innovations combines with capturing today’s aesthetic.

Considered separates create the perfect wardrobe where fit and silhouette elevate core pieces. Relevance and functionality prevail as items take on iconic, archival forms as seen in RADZI fluid cupro mac, IVES wrapped blouse and CORSO tiered georgette dress.

Transparency contrasts against colors and patterns of boldness. Timelessness intertwines with modernity. Weight versus weightlessness. There’s opulence in subtle detailing.

Palettes weave pastels with candy bright, cosmetic hues sit alongside metallic and calm greens settle down intense blues.

When it comes to accessories, arm candy sees shapes soften with confident hardware featuring shard metal work in shoulder bag CRANDON. A signature, etched lock evolves into a drawstring toggle in styles such as STEVIE.

Feminine caged cutwork is displayed in EVEY, SUMMER and NINA shoes, whilst playful woven ribbon detailing takes linear inspiration in ALEX, DAKOTA and MARRIET bags. Woven chain appears on espadrilles and bag handles and oversized tassels and fringing feature on LAGUNA and STEVIE bags.

Come nightfall, gloss and lacquered clutches appear in two-tone Perspex clutch JOY, and SASSY belts and BELLA bracelets are inlaid with enamel. Other highlights include a sleek pyramid patent clutch and mirror clutch PORTIA.

Hero shapes include NAVARRE and MAYA bucket, CHERRY tote and the perfect day to evening bag: KANE.

The ALANA sling-back, GELDA sandal, block heel sandals JACKSON and FRANKA, and transitional boots BEULLER and IMOGEN stand out.

When it comes to men’s collection, THE PERFORMER celebrates 50s Americana with Sinatra at the helm as muse. With a hint of nostalgia for menswear past, there’s a return to manly silhouettes and macho fabric weights.

With a salute to the effortless panache of the Rat Pack, highlights include the FOSTER ‘mouline’ jacket or LEARY shawl collar linen jacket; while evening is pure Vegas with the JAKE white tuxedo jacket.

MODERN MAN, OLD SOUL sees an old experienced soul inhabit a young body. Wearing ‘grown-up’ clothes beyond his years, he has an air of Benedict Cumberbatch about him.

Think deep blue hues, complementing tonal looks; COSTA unstructured jacket, KIRK Cuban collar shirt and ROSS trousers.

Sharp seaming, inspired by modernist architecture, features on shirts and outerwear.

CIGAR SPORTS & COGNAC CLUBS introduce larger and geo prints into the mix.

A sporting aesthetic prevails, with golfing greens as a backdrop and HARTNETT blouson jacket front of stage.

A ‘relaxed casual’ affair, this strand of the collection incorporates the timeless chic of fine gauge knit polo shirts, unstructured blazers and a sprinkling of vintage-inspired pieces with a touch of modernity in ROCCO checked casual jacket and trouser look.

RESORT READY, COCKTAIL APPROPRIATE heralds the return of the printed shirt. Popularized by Montgomery Clift in From Here to Eternity and Elvis in Blue Hawaii the palette is brighter with unapologetically bold prints, shown on the BONDI flower print and CAVIAR printed shirts.

As the weather heats up lightweight fabrics dominate and luxurious silk and linen arrive, with ASHER double-breasted jacket. Formal summer party attire exudes extravagance and is peppered with premium accessories such as the PATAS, SAKI and TAMERIN croc effect leather package. Dressing up becomes de rigueur.

This season also sees the continuation of collaborations, including exclusive black on navy Jack Purcell and a luxurious travel offering with SteamLine Luggage in the spring.
