Pieces in UNDERCOVER's Fall/Winter 2019 shape up to be a tribute to A Clockwork Orange. The dystopian crime film was released in the 1970s and is an adaptation of Anthony Burgess' novel, which goes by the same name.
The references to the cult-classic drama in UNDERCOVER's garments are quite obvious. The tribute to A Clockwork Orange extends to a "smooth button-up poplin coat [...] and a pair of cozy lounge pants." Both silhouettes are made to be slouchy and both depict a sizable graphic of the movie's protagonist — Alex DeLarge. To solidify the reference, the film's name is printed in small font across the chest of the jacket and on the back of the trousers.
