Marc Newson uses the "idea of a uniform" to create G-Star RAW Spring Summer 2016 collection
Australian designer Marc Newson's latest collection for fashion brand G-Star RAW is designed to make it easy to throw together an outfit in the morning (+ slideshow).
Newson aimed for his Spring Summer 2016 garments for the Dutch brand to be a set of wardrobe staples that would work together without too much thought.
"It started with sort of an obsession that I have of not having to think too much in the morning ? you know, when you get dressed," said Newson, who also joined Apple's design team in 2014.
"And this idea that you could just go to your wardrobe and sort of pull out a bunch of things, and you knew that they were all going to work together."
Newson has worked with G-Star RAW on biannual collections for 12 years. On the collaboration's 10th anniversary, he told Dezeen that "most industrial designers don't have a clue about fashion".
His previous collections for the brand have included denim garments influenced by American sportswear and clothing featuring bold graphics.
"It comes back to this idea of a uniform," said Newson, "which was always an underlying philosophy in all of the collections that we've done."
