Luke Derrick, a New Gen menswear designer who showed during London Fashion Week, is making suits for the 21st century, and they’re a fusion of different London aesthetics.

The designer said he’s fascinated by the posturing cool boys of Shoreditch and tweedy Savile Row types, and the men in tracksuits and slouchy jackets in a rainbow of colors.

He also believes immigrants have breathed new life into London’s fashion scene: “There’s a new, more hopeful idea of what British elegance can be,” he said.

His collection, Raincheck, was full of tailored jersey suiting, outerwear made from taffeta nylon, and cozy sweaters. The scarves thrown around models’ necks made them look effortlessly dashing.

Last season, the designer’s runway debut, Nightwalker was inspired by the eclectic cast of characters he’d spot on his 2:00 a.m. walk home from his east London studio.

This time, he focused on the morning after, with a palette of pale violet layered with buttercup yellow, cornflower blue, and tangerine, reflecting the colorful melting pot that London has become.
