MERC REVS UP THE SPRING / SUMMER STYLE STAKES
We’re big fans of Merc here at Fused. The fitted knitted polo shirts and stylish parkas and Harringtons with their Rude Boy stylings keep Merc at the forefront of British street fashion.
Ivy League staples mix with highlights such as micro print shirts, Bermuda shorts and Letterman jackets. Soft casual tailoring provides the wardrobe for the evening shift, and there’s neatly tailored shorts with contrast touches. Pastel colours, deep red and duck egg blue complement ginghams and dog-tooth fabrics. Geometric print shirts and bold striped knitted polos add a touch of 1960’s chic, though it’s 1950’s Americana that is the real driving influence for this colourful new collection. Updated and reinterpreted for a new audience, of course. Road trips, Cadillacs and colourful beach huts form the background for an Instagram summer. All set to shine by model musicians Jethro Baker from Buster Shuffle, Mitch Ayling from The Milk and Ian Cummins from The Deets – adding a soundtrack to a summer of sharp threads. But, should the heavens open, Merc’s spring-weight water resistant parka is ready for action!
So this Summer jump on your Lambreta and head for the beach and make it a season of style to shout about.
