Charlie Porter on knitwear designer Matty Bovan

We think Matty Bovan is the best thing to hit the British fashion scene since Alexandere McQueen! His design are daring, witty, ultimately creative, completely original and utterly divine. Super playful at the same time, his collections don’t fit into any commercial concept, and in a totally commercialised world, where anything goes to create profit, he stays true to himself, no matter what – he even wears the collection himself! Matty, we applaud you and love it that you wear your own kit… mattybovan.com
