Nottingham-based menswear label Universal Works is continuing its journey, releasing two yearly collections exploring faraway lands. Last season visited India, seeing Universal Works select Middle Eastern capitals for its Fall\/Winter 2023 “ACT II” collection. <\/p>\n
Universal Works transports into bold cinematic atmospheres, celebrating legendary filmmakers who have outlined their roles in creative history. From Wes Anderson to Spike Lee, Universal Works uplifts the dim-lit offering with messages of love and peace. The brand takes inspiration from traditional Moroccan household decorations, backdropped by rich textures essential to the region. <\/p>\n
The FW23 collection begins with embroidered outerwear in subtle olive hues, matched with coordinating painter pants and suede footwear. Faded corduroy lands on pocketed designs, while printed shirting receives tonal illustrations. Traditional paisley patterns reside on relaxed uniforms, completed by stained tracksuits, padded jackets, and more. <\/p>\n
