Jocks & Nerds Magazine recently sat down with Nicholas Daley to discuss his background and his SS17 ‘Juteopolis’ Collection – read the introduction below and click below to read the interview in full.
“While graduating in 2013, British designer Nicholas Daley has made waves that reach as far as Japan.
After leaving Central Saint Martins he did a stint at Nigel Cabourn
and Hardy Amies of Savile Row. His interests lie in British subcultures
and traditional craft. For his debut collection for spring/summer 2015,
Daley looked to reggae and punk for inspiration and even had Don Letts
model the clothes. For each season, Daley collaborates with an artist to

Christy’s London – making use of their age–old methods.

Gallery Beams, and magazines including Eyescream, Popeye, Grind and Brutus”… click here to read the interview in full
