Make some noise. We live in the city and online in search of noise. If silence is death, life must be noise. Consuming all the audio, media, political and visual noise maketh the 21st-centry human. Fuck that noise. The noise in my head won’t stop. I need a filter. I need to do me, not you, you and you. Who am I, what’s my name?
Liam Hodges Spring Summer 2018 collection takies in of numerous references from grime, two step, pirate radio, ultimate car modding, through to spoken word artists, zine culture, anarchist scouting and folklore – Liam’s collections have always taken the same hyper-hybrid approach that incorporates sportswear and workwear silhouettes, with DIY culture, standing out amongst the spectrum of visual noise.
Other parts of the collection feature legendary Italian sports brand – FILA. Liam utilises FILA’s distinctive colour blocking aesthetic, including a take on his very own trademark jerseys. Also featured in the collection are FILA’s ‘Original Fitness’ sneaker, a style that has been with the brand since 1987 that has been reimagined with a “mad texture” and Liam Hodges and FILA dual branding.
