The New York-based fashion label releases the new Private Policy Fall/Winter 2018 collection recalling inspiration from the past. The label draws influence from late and great actor Charlie Chaplin from decades ago. Chaplin is perhaps best known for the [comedic film](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-on-one-collection), The Great Dictator which mocked Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. The actor stood for his value in freedom, humanity, and justice in creating this film exposing the dictator's cruelty and self-righteousness.

The Private Policy Fall/Winter 2018 collection is created to stand up for what the label believes is right, which is "anti nuclear weapon, anti dictatorship, and anti ignorance" values. The pieces feature [military uniforms and non gender-conforming silhouettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection). The entire capsule sits between a balance of [streetwear and high fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-3-capsule-2).
