Teenage Dream

16.08.2012 | Blog | BY:

Our Aggy’s been busy. Decamped from NYC, living the LA dream with an enigmatic marriage to Giovanni Ribisi. But it’s her roots that we’re at. For Dr Martens she’s revisited the teenage dream, all laced up DM and X-ray specks. This is UK culture, Gavin Watson, skinheads and unashamed standing out from the crowd, the flavour that we came to love Aggy for back in those heady London days of 2007 when her love of The Slits and her unparalled ability to rock out a peroxide pixie crop and strong brows took our hearts by storm.

Her collection for the brand marries her personal heritage and affinity for Dr Martens hard-wear with the Nineties American grunge style of her newly adopted home. Taking Winona Ryder and Juliette Lewis as her point of reference, think Reality Bites, Natural Born Killers, check shirts, glaring ditsy flower prints and round rimmed sunnies. She might have stretched the distance between the rainy North-West and sunny CA but she’s not about to ditch the boots for a cosy Hollywood-land life.

Agyness Deyn’s collection for Dr Martens is in stores now.
