Oliver Spencer London Fashion Week When Rock Rolled with Afrobeat Music is an inspiration for Oliver Spencer. For the Autumn/Winter 16’ season our journey has taken us from London to Africa, inspired by maverick musician and pioneering drummer, Ginger Baker; a founding member of Cream and drummer for Blind Faith who travelled to Africa where he was immersed into the world of Afrobeat and collaborated with famed African musician, Fela Kuti. When rock rolled with Afrobeat. A/W 2016 Foto: Catwalking.com The Collection is made up of relaxed tailoring and loungewear remain true to the classic Oliver Spencer silhouette while layering and knitwear give a decisively nostalgic feel to the collection. Quintessentially British styling and a colour palette of ferrous brown, midnight blue, forest green and London Grey are offset with grounded earthy tones of claret and caramel.
