VICTORIA SOWERBY . LONDON

Graduate School: Central Saint Martins
Graduate Year: 2012

The first thing that we think about football clothing is just horrible and totally ugly and totally drunk bulk men wearing them. Victoria Sowerby's graduate collection about the menswear football twist. She stated "The Fall song “Theme From Sparta F.C’ and the film ‘The Firm’ pretty much sum it up. There’s something about the way big burley Northern men dress to go to the football. I’m originally from the North East of England and would always go to watch Boro games when I was younger. I love how these ultra masculine meatheads don’t think twice about donning a bright red velour tracksuit."
She specialize prints and she took the prints from head to toe and even to the accessories. The football field fake grass just transform into another fabrication on a lovely mens football clutch.
