For our latest Editorial feature, we came together with American workwear giants Dickies, and their European department – Dickies Life, to re-imagine the brands Autumn/Winter 2016 collection.

A brand that has spent almost a century in crafting quality workwear apparel, Dickies made the seamless, perhaps inadvertent, transition in to the streetwear market thanks to it’s classic styles being adopted by and subsequently representative of various sub-cultures, most importantly skateboarding. It’s quality in design and accessible price point has seen Dickies become a staple in most wardrobes, and Dickies aknowledged this, reworking and updating their cuts and fits for the modern market but maintaining their robust workwear heritage.

This shoot aimed to celebrate the ‘basics’ and the ‘essentials’ and their integral role in our everyday wear.  Dickies have created a simplicity and a certain level of quality that allows the wearer to be creative, whether its layered up or styled individually.
