Beyond the coveted graphics, Raf's Autumn/Winter 2003-2004 Collection, 'Closer', offered a tongue-in-cheek take on British dressing, all newsboy caps, white wool coats, aran sweaters, and a Union Jack stitched into the back of a shearling jacket. It could be the Peter Saville treatment, but the models look particularly beautiful in this show, ethereal even. For Simons it marked a pivot from the aggressive shows of the early aughts to a more refined, if still rebellious, elegance. This is the magnum opus of the collection, an incredible parka with removable polyester sherpa lining and a gorgeous hand-painted graphic by Saville on the back, most known as the artwork used for New Order's album Technique.
