I had the pleasure of meeting Gemma Slack last year during a trip to London, where I fell so in love with the city that I did not ever want to leave. It was edifying to speak to a young designer with such a strong, focused direction in design. Since that trip, Gemma has become more than a recognizable talent yet a distinguishable name in London fashion. For her Autumn/Winter 2010 collection, she stayed true to her dark facade adding men’s pieces that are in fact unisex. “I always kind of think that gendered clothes are interchangeable anyway”, says Gemma. Undifferentiated pieces seemed to play on a theme in her collection as the she collaborated with Katie Rowland to design the accessory range called Rowland vs. Slack that flawlessly combined the aesthetics of the two designers. The collaboration was the ultimate supplement to a concentrated collection with loads of leather with a feminine appeal. For more information on Gemma Slack, log onto www.gemmaslack.com.
