JW Anderson’s FW22 Motif Is a Friendly Elephant

As seen on the runway, the collection comprises more than 20 pieces that each work the new elephant graphic into their design in their own ways. For example, a relaxed fit, drop-shoulder shell jacket features an all-over digital print that sees either a red or blue base kitted out in the JW Anderson grid logo motif and a repeated elephant character, while wide leg trousers in the same composition make for a full tracksuit, especially when paired with the matching bum bag or asymmetrical bucket hat.

This same design works a T-shirt, tote bag, and a cap, but is altered when it comes to more sartorial garments like the oversized polo shirt. Presented in white, this boxy shirt is completed with blue stripes on the collar and a digital print of a blue and green elephant. This style informs a formal white shirt that sees its buttons sport an elephant’s eye on them, while a duo of turtle neck sweaters and the JW-signature intarsia neckband complement a pair of socks with its black and red design that’s softer than the aforementioned offerings.
