Emerging Fervour

Let’s start with a fact, nobody would deny; music creates fashion. Whether the way Johnny Rotten cut his shirt, David Bowie celebrated his androgyny or Brian Ferry emphasized his dandyism, they created styles.

Times have changed, and so has the synergy of music and fashion.
The good news is, there are artists like Ebony Bones!.
The bad news is, there are people like Liam Gallagher.

Ebony Bones! obviously expresses herself and her music through her style. And just like her sound, this style hits you with a hammer. It’s loud, motley, it’s wicked! She wears woollen bracelets and necklaces combined with Josephine Baker memorial banana skirts. Her outfits are like a declaration of war on all suicidal-skinny-jeans-wearing indie rockbands. Let’s come to the point: this is what punk used be. DIY with no rules.

Liam Gallagher recently launched his label “Pretty Green“. You might assume the name has something to do with the fabrics he’s using, but no. And you might also assume he’s doing this to make some money, but no. According to his website, he’s “not here to rip anyone off and not doing it for the money either.” No offense, but his limited edition is not a low-budget investment. And selling the collection at Selfridges, with the chance to meet Liam Gallagher and get an autograph, leaves a bitter aftertaste. Is this maybe more an over-priced merchandise promotion?
