BERLIN-BASED BRAND ‘DAGGER’ DROPS NEWEST COLLECTION ‘NOT LIKE THE MOVIES’
The newest collection ‘NOT LIKE THE MOVIES’ from the berlin-based brand is a love letter and admiration of the few remaining movie rental stores in Berlin. A perfect representation of the rebellious spirit of the city berlin. A punk “FUCK YOU” to stand firm for the sake of what you love, captioned on the back of this season’s core tee, “It was always coming, we just didn’t care“. The collection is now available in the DAGGER Online Store.
The “erotic discount” T-shirt embodies a graphic that “real Berliners” know from their walk to the adult film corner at their local Video Center. The slogan “YOURE GONNA GO FAR KID – as a pat on the shoulder with DAGGERS typical cheeky wink with the eye.
The nine-piece collection including four caps, one hoodie and 4 t-shirts also features a special collaboration with Glaswegian artist Trackie McLeod who’s known for bridging the gap between fine art and design.
His practice pokes fun at British nostalgia and identity, using humor as social commentary to discuss themes of masculinity, class and politics.
“Taking the micky” displaying a famous mouse with DAGGERS infamous “All the best” slogan to dystopian take on childhood movie nostalgia.
