Continuing their exploration and reinterpretation of the youth- and subcultures of decades past, Drykorn have have left the 50’s inspired universe of their SS17 collection behind, and turned their gaze towards the 90’s for their AW17 collection.
The collection examines two of the most prominent subcultures of the 90’s: The Seattle Grunge Scene, with Kurt Cobain’s rough, disheveled style as a focal point, and Britain’s Britpop movement with Jarvis Cocker and Damon Albarn, of Pulp and Blur respectively, as obvious touchstones.
The vigorously creative team at Drykorn, never content with simple rehashings of earlier styles, does not just build on each of these styles – they ram them together to create a masterfuld blend that, while clearly referencing the originators, is entirely its own: The mix of Cobain’s disintegrating sweaters and jeans, Cocker’s razor-sharp suiting and overcoats, and Albarn’s lax, soccer-inspired blend of sports- and workwear, creates a universe which feels both retrospective and undeniably contemporary.
Most of the new collection has already landed in the store - drop by and find your inner rock star.
