The largely industrial-inspired and deconstructed fashion is an attempt of Tourne De Transmission to comment on the ever-so-evident "lack of transparency within policy, politics and media." The London label beautifully infuses the anxiety of the current social climate into a series of pieces that boast [traditional tailoring](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphpaper-ss26) with an overall vibe that silently beckons intellectual rebellion.
