Maharishi, which was once an underground London cult favorite, is seemingly growing in popularity year by year. This season, their collection featured urban street wear as usual and had a particular focus on groups and tribes, whether it be religious groups, crews or even military platoons.
We see this group focus in the form of robes and long coats (roots in religious orders), uniforms or camouflage utility wear (military focus) or even stadium jackets and oversize streetwear (crews). All of their designs were inspired by peaceful brotherhood and the color orange (they call it Lama) is prevalent among the collection, inspired by Tibetan monks (Maharishi, although they do military designs are very much pacifists).
As usual, we seen the insignia and badges, many with the Maharishi name and alligator logo plastered on various jackets and otherwise.
Maharishi always seems to push boundaries, and we can’t wait to snap of some of these designs for AW16.
