Matty Bovan FALL 2021 READY-TO-WEAR

The smeary, glitchy psychedelic color effects that work their way through Matty Bovan’s fall video are a digital analogy for the vigorous free-form way that he’s always scrambled color, pattern, paint, and garments as if they’re materials on an artist’s palette. Still, whatever wizard tech program arranged it, IRL it came from a church hall in York, shot on a few models Bovan had asked in from neighboring towns. The clothes themselves were collaged as always in his home studio several hundred miles away from London.
