As well as taking on an artisanal approach to his designs,
Olubiyi Thomas also reflects on his Nigerian and Scottish roots by linking them together in his collections of clothing. This coat is released as part of his eponymous label’s aptly named Future Highlander campaign, and shapes traditional fabrics—cotton and wool—into an expressive silhouette. Woven with a subtle check pattern, it’s signed off with a raw hem and quilted inside for warmth—and to showcase skilled stitching, too.
