“For his third season since the re-launch his eponymous label, American designer Thomas Engel Hart decided to create a film to define his collection (watch it below).
Model casting has always been a distinctive pull to Hart’s aesthetics and the film depicts the accustomed sinewy youth wearing a signature leather jacket and deconstructed wool vest. Despite the film avoiding literal presentations of several looks, the characteristic nonchalance, adolescence and eccentric characters are all clearly evident.
These elements are integral to the modernity of Hart’s communication and aesthetics and this film effectively sends the furtive Hart message. Adapting his design concepts to moving image is a natural progression for a designer whose ideas are always at the forefront of innovation and radical thinking.
