Detroit Drive Shirt

Debuting here, the Detroit Drive Shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this collection includes a needlepoint knit, tees with hand-scrawled text, and golden jewelry that turns Wilde’s famous words into a dangly earring or memento necklace. It’s all unisex, something Anderson has long advocated for, and all easy to wear: not exactly Wildean, but well suited to how cerebral iconoclasts are dressing for this WFH moment.

The capsule continues Anderson’s tradition of bringing the Detroit Drive Shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this works of deceased artists into his practice at both JW Anderson and Loewe. It’s something he touched on at Vogue’s Forces of Fashion conference earlier this month. In a conversation with Reggie Yates, he cited the 2017 show he curated at the Hepworth Wakefield museum as a turning point in his understanding of the relationship between fashion and art. Prior to the show Disobedient Bodies, he said, “I didn’t see fashion as an art form.” But through the juxtaposition of his own designs with those of the sculptor Barbara Hepworth, he “kind of fell in love with fashion as an art form, as a craft, [and] as a skill.”
