About

Hi! I’m Joseph Makinson, I’m a BA (Hons) Fashion graduate from Manchester Fashion Institute. I specialise in menswear, print, creative cut and leather. 

'Men Working' explores the unlikely connection between mid-century couture and workwear. Using a blend of unconventional materials such as leather, latex, wool and plastics, traditional masculine silhouettes are emphasised by feminine elements. The magpie sensibility manifests itself in the collections vibrant colour story and various textures whilst finding beauty in the mundane.
