Through the grounds of Edith Neville Primary School, fashion’s beloved sit on benches in two neat rows, obediently awaiting Denzilpatrick‘s AW25.
CONSISTENT with their continued celebration of London, Denzilpatrick’s autumn-winter 2025 was a parade of brotherhood, romance, and unity. Recognising the industry’s shift towards a medieval revival, the menswear brand reconsidered the concept under their community-focused perspective, sending models out in battle dress appropriate for London’s rush.
Colour blocks and stripes were married with armoured breastplates and bondage-like straps, and inspired by the spirit of the racetrack, trimly tailored trousers were mud-splashed in triumph, defeat, and battle. Models walked with clothes alive in Denzilpatrick’s vision of the fallen rider, post-race, victorious in defeat, renewed.
Monochrome racing suits debuted with the label’s classic oversized sleeve, belted and ready for action. Cropped jackets built their frames out with accentuated, slouchy shoulders, and colours evolved from shades of gunmetal and silver, into regal tones of brick, lilac, and teal. Ostentatious slogans & regal patterns ran throughout, and models gripped helmets or strapped themselves into leather bags, as they weaved through the rows.
Trenchcoats and suits perfectly embodied London Fashion Week’s spirit of peacocking and Denzilpatrick’s concept of the everyday military; high-collared suit jackets and shirts were trimmed with feathers, while the needed comfort of cable-knit, turtleneck jumpers sat beneath authoritative, double-breasted trenches.
Silhouettes of power transformed the AW25 show into a modern and dynamic display of the brand’s signature values of connection and chivalry.
Daniel Gayle and his partner James Bosley, founded the label in 2021, using the motto ‘London belongs to me’. In their AW25, this motto stands strong, with the collection evoking pride, strength, and a desire for connection. Honouring the stories of the city, the London-based brand has once again proven its urban identity and rich understanding of the capital’s inhabitants.
