This season, Nash explores the intersections between his mixed heritage: his mother is of Guyanese heritage and born in Barbados, his father is of English and Mauritian heritage, born and raised in the UK, while his grandfather is from Mauritius.
Nash recollected the memory of when he first visited the Mauritius, absorbing the diverse cultures, relaxed ambience of ocean waves, vibrant food and the laid-back approach to island life, drawing parallels to the culture he knew growing up with his mother, all of which inspires Intersection – Saul Nash’s SS24 collection.
Defining Intersection as “a place or area where two or more things meet”, the collection is a clash of cultural perspectives that have informed Nash throughout various points in his life, with references to sea life, aquatics and watersports, and presented through silhouettes, prints, seamless knitwear and a vibrant colour palette.
Upon visiting his grandfather in Mauritius, Nash was struck by its shared cultures with the Caribbean and India, despite its geographical differences. “I realised these elements are what shaped the cultures I have known,” he says, “and that they were formed by people migrating throughout the world.”
The ocean calls out with Saul Nash-printed beach towels and a full-body wetsuit for deep-sea dives. The collection’s colour palette – Nash’s brightest yet – is splashed with shades of the sea: turquoise, azure and ultramarine.
