Fred Perry X Amy Winehouse
'Swag My Bitch Up'
Here she is, Little Red A.K.A the slightly better half to N.T.S.
Now you all know i am a complete Fred Perry fiend by now and i ain’t shy of a cheeky collaboration either. So i obviously keep a close mince pie (eye) on anything exclusive that is being released.
The legend, hero, pure inspiration to music and fashion that was Amy Winehouse had already released one successful line of her take on the brand and was due to release another before her unfortunate and touching demise from this catwalk world we call life. Luckily Fred Perry thought it would be a great prop to Amy to go ahead with the release, and I couldn’t agree more. What a way to celebrate this influential ladies life by donning the clothes on your back that she had an input on.
Now as a boy, clearly, I was in no position to be wearing any of this clobber but appreciated what it meant to British culture. I wanted to be a part of this history, fortunate for myself I knew the perfect beehive rocking candidate to wear such a unique and special garment. Someone who is aspiring in the music scene writing her own songs, can hold her fashion, legitimately reps a beehive and was a Fred virgin ( I weren’t havin’ that).
So we nipped on down to the local Fred clothing establishment were I let Little Red have full control of the store and bank balance to pick her collab piece, Baller. I had a few different items thrown in front of my face before I saw ‘The One’. I quickly shooed her into the changing room and was ecstatic with the result.
Little Red went for a classic polo, which is exactly where every Fred Perry virgin should start. The polo is fluffy candy pink and navy in an F1 race flag style print all over the shirt. The collar also has some miniature square’s all around it. The reason I found it perfect was the fit, Little Red isn’t lacking in the Lar Lar department (Breasts, for my international pals) and the shirt complimented this wonderfully. Let’s just say, how can I blame heads for having a browse?
In every way possible she looked the part paired with the hive hair and cheeky eye line flicks just how Amy would of wanted it and rocked it.
‘I cheated myself,
like I knew I would,
I told you I was trouble,
you know that I’m no good’. R.I.P Amy Winehouse ‘83-2011
