The UNCOMMON Films presents: Heron Preston "NIGHT SHIFT" Documentary

In this documentary produced by Antoine Bal & Walter Harvin, they highlighted the preparation & days leading up designer Heron Preston’s first ever runway show in Paris fashion week FW19 titled “NIGHT SHIFT”.

Night Shift, Heron Preston’s FW19 collection, seems as if it was highly inspired by the designer’s fascination with security guards and TSA agents, prohibited items and restricted areas.

Heron Preston began developing ideas for the collection on the TSA Instagram account, an account that grew a surprisingly mass of followers influenced by TSA agent Bob Burn’s dad-humor documentation of items (an emotional support peacock, a lobster, a meat slicer) that faced inquiry from the TSA. In October when Burns died unexpectedly, Preston began to reflect on the presences in “24-hour places,” and the cross section of culture and lifestyles that populate them.
Preston also found inspiration in the restricted access zone signage at the
BK Navy Yard near his home in
Brooklyn, delivery uniforms in Tokyo and all night truckers (Dekotora Culture) who name and commune with their vehicles.

The collection displayed an emphasis on outerwear, sustaining the brand’s affinity for functional aesthetics. Graphics are modified, demonstrating an elevated balance that transitions to a more high end feel versus previously being focused on youth culture. The primary logo for the collection is an adaptation of the Securitas three-dot design, with three ovals and Preston’s hallmark Cyrillic “STYLE” marker.
