Since establishing his namesake label, the designer has grown from a budding student of Central Saint Martins’ Fashion Masters course into a beacon of Great British born-and-bred talent. Today, he is a household name, but it wasn’t easy getting started. “My godfather was the person who taught me how to sew,” Green explains to us, sitting in his studio alongside the upcoming Fall/Winter 2023-Spring/Summer 2024 collection that coincides with his brand turning a decade old. For Green’s latest collection, he looked back at the input of his godfather, an upholsterer: “I worked with him on my graduate collection. We worked with craftspeople that were either part of my family or people we worked with in the past, in celebration of where we’ve come from and where we’ve been.” In doing so, Green was able to create a collection that comments on the past and simultaneously looks to the future. His sculptural pieces – called ‘Padded Friends’ or ‘Padded Men’ – were also made in collaboration with his godfather. And the process of making them, which is much like an avant-garde DIY art form, enabled the designer to produce a FW/SS collection on his own terms. This is one of Green’s largest collections to date, and almost his most celebratory one. It doesn’t necessarily mark 10 years of the brand in itself, but it does show how the designer has continued to evolve in this period.
