Fred Perry x Barney Bubbles Mouth PoloFred Perry Laurel Wreath

Description

This season iconic British brand Fred Perry celebrates the work of the late Barney Bubbles and his contribution to the music and design scenes of the 70s and 80s – inspired by the subcultures that followed and evolved from his work. The aesthetic of these pieces adopt the same DIY style that this artist is so well known for. In homage to the founding father of album-cover artwork, this cotton piqué Mouth Polo boasts a design taken from Bubbles’ design for Nick Lowe’s 1979 single ‘Cracking Up.’ The mouth itself belongs to keyboard player, Bob Andrews of 60s pop band Kippington Lodge. The graphic red scribble printed onto the collar has also been taken from the iconic single cover. Finally, the iconic Laurel Wreath is outlined here in a distorted red colourway, another example of the artist’s punk aesthetic. 100% Cotton Piqué Barney Bubbles Original Artwork to the Chest Twin Tipped Collar & Cuffs Outlined Laurel to the Chest Embroidered Scribble to the Collar Includes a Blue Paint Brush Applique Patch
