"A little of the old ultraviolence."
Following on from last season's study of 2001: A Space Odyssey, Jun Takahashi's contemporary streetwear label turns his attention to another Stanley Kubrick classic for AW19. Based on the seminal and wildly controversial novel by Anthony Burgess, A Clockwork Orange is a dystopian horror set in a London of the future, plagued by gangs, 'droogs', and ultraviolence.
Honing in on iconic scenes from the film adaptation, with a particular focus on the protagonist/antagonist Alex DeLarge, Takahashi pulls stills from the cinematic masterpiece and transposes them onto tried-and-tested streetwear silhouettes from his Tokyo-based label's back catalogue.
