Fossil Warriors Collection

The Fashion Fringe catwalk moment that crystallised Palmer’s sculptural knitwear.

Story & heritage

NOT JUST A LABEL records SS 2011 Fossil Warriors as a collection and notes that Palmer was selected by John Galliano for an on-schedule Fashion Fringe catwalk show at Covent Garden in 2010, entitled Fossil Warriors.

The official archive preserves the collection as a dedicated fashion gallery, making it one of the clearest source-grounded milestones in Palmer’s label history.

Materials & craft

Fossil Warriors channels organic fossil-like pattern through knitted garments, using shape and surface together to give the runway looks a sculptural edge.

How to choose & style

Treat these archived Alice Palmer pieces as visual anchors rather than current retail basics: the strongest looks need little styling beyond clean shoes, minimal jewellery and room for the engineered knit pattern to read.

For a contemporary edit, choose the quieter silhouettes when the pattern is loud, or use the more sculptural pieces as gallery-like evening statements.
