The War of the Three Kingdoms Fuses 17th-Century Rebellion with Punk Design
References: carolinasarria
The War of the Three Kingdoms collection reframes historical struggle as modern resistance. Carolina Sarria draws inspiration from the Clubmen, ordinary people who resisted during the 17th-century conflicts across England, Scotland, and Ireland. The punk-infused designs incorporate asymmetrical tartans and distressed imperial motifs such as crowns and maps, torn, tarnished, and reassembled into wearable rebellion.
Silver and gold threads suggest the glint of armor and faded authority, while raw-edge tailoring channels the urgency and resilience of hastily patched garments. The aesthetic feels both defiant and poetic, underscored by the declaration that this is clothing for those unwilling to be written out of the story. Launching August 15 at Dover Street Market New York, the collection will also feature a capsule of exclusive graphic tees to accompany the main release.
