British designer Nicholas Daley puts the spotlight on the roots of reggae icon Peter Tosh, celebrating the synergy between music and martial arts during the 1970s.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The collaboration unites both firms under the interest of how contemporary culture and traditional craftsmanship are linked. Both celebrate the different British subcultures that have existed in Britain; simultaneously exploring their connection to music and fashion. The strong ties between Fred Perry<\/strong> <\/a>and Nicholas Daley<\/strong> are explained in two aligned brand philosophies.<\/p>\n

Storytelling is at the heart of Nicholas Daley<\/strong>‘s designs and each piece is signed with patches that further build his narrative. For this season, the British designer<\/strong><\/a> aims to create a balance between the style of reggae icon Peter Tosh<\/strong> and the functionality and qualities of martial arts costume. He combines this by incorporating details and styles from the Fred Perry<\/strong> archive.<\/p>\n

Peter Tosh<\/strong> was a reggae musician who, along with Bob Marley<\/strong> and Bunny Wailer<\/strong>, was one of the main members of the band The Wailers<\/strong>. His particular style was characterised by dressing with elements of martial arts even on stage. From Karate belts to the full uniform that characterises this discipline. He was openly known for being a revolutionary in his thoughts and actions.<\/p>\n
