Basso & Brooke turned out an impressive ambush of ‘we do printing better than you’ designs in their A/W 2011 collection. With the digital print market becoming incresingly over-saturated after the duo’s original mastery, the crowned kings stepped up to the proverbial, sartorial plate and proved that they most certainly do still got ‘it’, whatever ‘it’ is that makes their digi-prints more fine art than fashion. But it’s gotten a little bit vulgar; digital print is smeared all over the catwalks now and boys, we know you do it like no other, but save us from this onslaught and show us that’s not all you do. It’s all well and good showing myriad silhouettes but guessing the next skirt length wasn’t keeping the Frow awake; what was mesmerising is now a tad soporific. TRR promises that you can keep your places at the head of the digital print monarchy, just integrate some digital plain.
