The talented British designer Craig Green studied fashion at the prestigious Central Saint Martins college in London. He has since made his name and has shows during each London Fashion Week. Green's menswear is certainly experimental, one of the reasons it is suitable for the Centraal Museum's fashion collection. His break-through was in 2013, the year in which this collection was made. The combination of simple linear designs and huge sculptural, wooden masks in these two designs clearly project his signature. Green gladly uses waste material; the masks are made of wood from an old garden fence. The collection is based on shadow and reflection, dark and light, where one cannot exist without the other: the black garment is an exact copy of the white design and is literally in the shadow of its own image.
