Step into the stylish realm of ‘Galaxy Beyond’ by Mark Fast, where fashion merges with urban city architecture and combines space-inspired charm, gothic realm, and luxurious comfort, creating a striking presence on the urban streets.
This collection, with its extra-terrestrial edge, is a fusion of Mark Fast’s knit mastery and the creative legacy of Joe Colombo, a 60s architect who made his career based on futurist innovations, incorporating what he called the fourth dimension: time. Joe Colombo was widely recognized as the “creator of the future environment”. His holistic approach transformed objects into something extraordinary. His intuitive and exploratory designs pushed the boundaries, revolutionising living spaces.
Mark Fast skilfully incorporates his artistry into the fabric of this fashion narrative, creating cosy knit designs revealing subtle details beneath oversized coats, and attire crafted from weather-resistant materials, transforming the traditional runway into a dynamic canvas of diverse interstellar expressions.

The all-in-one denim boots and patent boots, coupled with matching gloves, creates the Mark Fast Autumn Winter 2024 statement. The juxtaposition of fluffy knit textures, faux feathered fringe elements, and velvet-textured bodycon dresses adds a touch of luxury and playfulness. Shots of neon inject a vibrant energy into the collection, while the colour palette spans from classic black and cream to deep purples, petrol blue, and hints of fuchsia and chartreuse. Mark Fast’s designs embrace gender-neutral appeal, embodying a fearless spirit that resonates with both the Mark Fast girl and guy – confident, boundary-breaking individuals who redefine fashion norms.
Whether navigating the city streets or setting new trends, ‘Galaxy Beyond’ showcases a blend of innovation and style designed for those who desire a touch of cosmic elegance while staying attuned to the beat of urban life, appealing to the cool and stylish community that defines the Mark Fast tribe.
About Mark Fast
Aspirational, fun & uninhibited encapsulates the energy of the Mark Fast brand.
Finding inspiration in London, Mark studied at Central Saint Martins and completed his BA there and went on to complete his MA in February 2008. His signature designs push the boundaries of modern knitwear technology. He has devised innovative stitching techniques, blending lycra with the finest luxury textiles. Everything is knitted by hand on domestic knitting machines and his work is formed onto the body as he knits. He sees knitwear as sculpture, where he experiments with different volumes to create a sensual silhouette.
The brand continually creates couture techniques alongside comfort and your embellished everyday item. Luxury, street wear & sportswear chic is at the centre of his brand and vision.
Something for all. Our Demi-couture pieces are worn, admired and adored by strong, powerful women whilst also engaging with the growing young customer base. Both menswear & womenswear are drawn in to the brand offering pieces that are the epitome of the current youth culture.
