Saul Nash Spring Summer 2027, STANCE, takes the wrestling singlet as its main graphic idea. Nash lifts its shape onto compression tops, tracing the torso like uniform and provocation. The line also recalls a sports hall floor, giving the motif another reading. It returns across breathable mesh knits, connected to the technical language Nash developed through his 2022 International Woolmark Prize-winning work. Through exclusive images for DSCENE Magazine, photographer Sohom Das captures the backstage atmosphere.
BACKSTAGE
Varsity references appear with control. Striped knitted panels run down bomber jackets, while waterproof shirts carry perforated outlines that suggest the singlet shape. Nash uses sports codes as construction tools, then moves them into a more intimate space. The garments reveal, conceal, frame muscle, and interrupt the body through lines, openings, and shifts in opacity.
Tailoring becomes active. Semi-sheer track jackets and cycling shorts in super-stretch mesh and Lycra hold the body closely. Denim carries whiskering for a worn-in feel, while trousers use darts that open during movement. A new suit jacket, shaped with pleats and an elasticated back, references fencing uniforms and appears in Ponte Di Milano and drill. Formalwear responds to motion like sportswear.
Footwear continues that direction. With APICCAPS and TOWORKFOR, Nash introduces his second footwear design: a boat shoe with a mesh and suede upper and drawstring-style lacing. Clarks also appears in the show, adding familiar shapes to Nash’s vocabulary.
