Satta x Universal Works

Posted on by bythelevel

 

 This season, two UK born brands come together on a concise capsule collection focused around honest clothing and inspired by 'Peace, Love and Soul'.

 Satta and Universal Works have both managed to carve out a niche in their respective areas, with Satta's livity-inspired, laid back lifestyle pieces and Universal Works accessible menswear designs and timeless aesthetic. Despite operating in different fields, both share similarities in their output, particularly in their focus towards quality. Built out of mutual respect of each others craft, the 'PEACE.LOVE.SOUL' collection offers highly wearable staple styles with a premium edge.  

 The release consists of a military inspired 'uniform' shirt jacket in sand, featuring subtle branded embroidery and a pin badge commemorating the release. Two t-shirt designs bulk out the release, both arriving in the same earthy tone and featuring dual branded graphics throughout, while one tee features the words 'Peace Love Soul' embroidered in to the chest. The collection is rounded off with an embroidered cap, again featuring both brands on the globe design and aligning with the collections earthy colour palette. 

The Satta x Universal Works collection is available now at universalworks.co.uk and select retailers including Goodhood

Universal Works Autumn/Winter 2014

Posted on by bythelevel

 

Providing a unique and refreshing approach to menswear styling, Universal Works return with their Autumn/Winter collection that references 50’s suiting and draws influence from military detailing and classic workwear.

The UK brand have prided themselves on producing small quantities and focused on the style and superior fits of their garments. This season they continue this ethos in a diverse collection that features a mixture of classic and contemporary fabrics across a range of smart menswear and more casual, workwear pieces. From Harris Tweed and Yorkshire Lambswool to Japanese denims, the broad choice of materials create the base, whilst Norfolks winter coastline acts as inspiration for the collections colour palette.

A slightly more mature look than we usually feature on the site, however we are huge fans of the brands approach to design and the care that goes into every piece. The mix of the traditional and the modern offers something different to the norm and its stylish yet understated clothing is the perfect solution to a smarter street ready look.

The Universal Works Autumn/Winter 2014 collection is available now at www.universalworks.co.uk
