Pervical and Sophy Hollington Honors Der Struwwelpeter
British menswear label Percival and UK-based artist Sophy Hollington work in collaboration to tell the story of Der Struwwelpeter. The capsule is full of limited edition pieces that nod to the children's book by Heinrich Hoffman, which came out back in 1845. It features ten stories that were illustrated and rhymed, telling takes of clear morals through dramatic ways.
Hollington takes the themes from the stories and uses them in reflection to the work she creates. This time, she creates prints using a hand-carved lino-cutting that is carefully embroidered onto the cotton jerseys. The details can be seen throughout the capsule, which boasts a predominantly minimal design language. The entire range is set to launch officially tomorrow.
