Alert! New Designer: Ryan Noon’s A/W collection rocks!

Having sharpened his teeth at Alexander McQueen, Nike and Henrik Vibskov, young UK-based designer Ryan Noon is now venturing out on his ownsome. The launch of his A/W collection at hip east London hangout Jaguar Shoes was an opportunity to fill the room with all of his favourite things - including a set of the most promising people working in UK fashion today. The young designer certainly didn’t stint on the tribal patterns, animal prints and hallucinogenic dancing.

Fashion designer moonlighting as an installation artist, Ryan Noon moved over from the US in 2002 in London to attend Central St Martins and to be closer to his beloved Scandinavia. He’s a keen walker, hiker, flier over glaciers and self-confessed talker to animals.
Noon’s T Shirts, sweatshirts and accessories are currently stocked in boutiques in Soho, Notting Hill and Hoxton but you can buy online at www.ryannoon.com. His sharp prints and eye for detail means that one doesn’t need to be suited and booted to look dapper.
