Delos SS22

If you have just struggled through the UK’s hottest ever summer, you may have decided that its time to take action and look at how your wardrobe can help. In our view, it makes sense to look to our friends in the Mediterranean to see how they cope, and with that in mind the new collection from Delos could not have come at a better time.

For those that did not study Classical Civilisation at A-Level, Delos is named after the mythological Greek island said to be the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis. Focusing on the meaning of the word of “clear” and “brought to life” it is no surprise that the collection centres on fluid pieces, that are trans-seasonal and that elevate the everyday.

Designed with the constant traveler in mind, there is an emphasis on natural materials, predominantly silk and great care and attention has gone into traditional craftsmanship with techniques like pin-tuck quilting, ombre dye and custom made embroidery all showcased. Largely unisex, silhouettes are soft and loose, and key pieces include the Shiro jacket and the Maximus jumpsuit.

From £215 and available at Delos and MATCHES FASHION.
