Summary
SR_A, under the creative direction ofSamuel Ross, has unveiled its SEASON 2 Main collection, a presentation that explores a vision for a new generation.
Staged at Ross's private estate in the U.K, the collection aims to blur the lines between formalwear, movement-oriented pieces and sophisticated loungewear. Relaxed tailoring is prominent, with pieces crafted from linen and silk, offering a fluid and comfortable fit. Elevated outerwear, incorporating silks and velvets, provides statement pieces that balance billowing silhouettes with the use of fine materials. This emphasis on comfort and utility is central to Ross's vision, as he seeks to create clothing that moves beyond traditional categories and embraces a more holistic approach to dressing.
Crafted entirely in British ateliers, the collection welcomed luxurious materials such as compact wools, soft velvet, exquisite silk and crisp linens — all contributing to a sense of leisure, ease and artistry. Each look is grounded by sculptural accessories — veg-tan leather utility bags, waxed cotton outerwear and loafers in calf suede and vegan crocodile.
The show's original score, also composed by Ross, deepens the introspective mood. With declarations like 'We must paint how the future will look, and function,' SEASON 2 positions fashion as a Trojan horse — an agent of quiet rebellion and coalition-building. More than a study in tailoring or textile, the collection is a manifesto for a unified future, where movement, memory, and meaning converge.
