Topshop launches capsule collection with Tolu Coker

The fashion brand’s new 18-piece line is now live on its website after first presenting the collection at London Fashion Week.

Topshop said the collection brings a “fresh perspective to contemporary womenswear”, featuring clean lines, sculptural silhouettes and purposeful detailing.

Highlights of the Tolu Coker collaboration include denim reimagined into coordinated sets such as cropped jackets, multi-pocket jeans and skirts featuring Coker’s signature pleating.

Other statement pieces in the collection include a knitted dress with refined fit and flare shaping, a tailored three-piece suit, sculpted shirting with domed sleeves and a signature shape checked dress.

Topshop has paired the launch of the Tolu Coker collaboration with a campaign titled ‘Doos’, which explores social mobility and the thresholds the modern woman crosses throughout life, from work to home, private to public, arrival to reinvention, and the wardrobe she carries with her through each one. 

Topshop managing director Michelle Wilson said: “Topshop has always believed in championing new talent and giving emerging designers a global platform. 

“Our fashion-loving community wants creativity, personality and cultural relevance. Tolu embodies that spirit completely. 

“Seeing pieces from this collection debut on the runway at her London Fashion Week show, and the incredible reaction they received, was a testament to her vision and the power of this collaboration. 

“Together, we’ve created a collection that feels modern, expressive and unmistakably ours.”

Coker added: “Working with Topshop on this collection felt like an opportunity to speak directly to a part of British fashion culture that shaped so many of us in real time. 

“We set out to create pieces that understand movement, identity and the way people actually live and dress now.”
