London-based fashion designer Liam Hodges introduces his latest seasonal collection designed for Fall/Winter 2020 entitled 'Brave New World, New Ideas.' The seasonal range invites wearers to explore their creativity through layers with the new silhouettes to transition to the dropping temperatures.
The design language embodies the blend between old pieces that have been repurposed at the silhouette, through construction techniques, and updated logos. Throughout the entire capsule, Hodges turns pieces inside out, recycles old logo labels, and repurposes old fabrics for new silhouettes. He explains the purpose of this concept, "investigations into the redistribution of power and creation in a world turned upside down by a thirst for production rather than conception."
