The Talented Thomas Tait
Thomas Tait is the 24-year-old Canadian born designer who jumped straight out of Central Saint Martins to launch his debut collection last season. He finds it difficult to describe his label at this early stage because it's in a process of growing and developing. Thomas Tait's Fall 2011 Collection consisted of dark shades in a tight palette of black and navy combined with contrasts of ivory pieces. According to Style.com, he worked day and night with his patterns. No wonder the results are amazingly precise cutaways, because for Tait it's all about the cut.
People see the label as minimalist and each season it ends up being more minimal than I plan. I guess it’s more about cut. It’s graphic rather than literal with a focus on lines. The creative process is entwined in the development of the pieces, said Tait in an interview with i-D online.

For the Spring 2012 Collection Tait replaced the dark wool tailored pieces from the fall season, with light colors and glossy textured fabrics. The spring look is sporty, minimalistic and in a positive sense, clinical. The colors are undefined and fluid caused by the details of the textured fabrics.
– Basically, the best way to see it is with colored lights. I like that people aren't safe with what color it is, said Tait to Style.com.
As Meenal Mistry described it nicely at her review at Style.com: "In a season of color that smacks you upside the head, the subtlety of baby pinks and mint greens stood out."
Thomas Tait's pastel palette gives a hope of a delightful spring to come, along with the quirky accessories. Tait collaborated with Nike for the puffy sneakers and Cutler and Gross for the funny sunglasses.
