AGYNESS DEYN LEADS DR. MARTENS NEWCASTLE FESTIVAL FASHION LINE-UP

RENOWNED style innovator, Agyness Deyn, is setting the stage for Dr. Martens Newcastle festival-ready range of footwear and clothing with her final collaboration collection with the brand. The inspiration for the festival regular’s fourth and final collaboration with Dr. Martens comes from her new LA home, and the surf and punk scene from the late 70’s and 80’s. Agyness Deyn said: “It’s great to have the freedom to play in so many style camps with the Docs girl. I was obsessing over the euphoria of summer and found that Docs has roots all the way into the early Venice Beach hardcore scene (very different from the East Coast). The inspiration is extremely laid-back, low key beach rat.” The British brand first recruited Manchester-born Agyness as its design ambassador for her embodiment of Dr. Martens’ ethos of standing for something with her desire for creative self expression. Amy Nelson, Dr. Martens UK retail marketing manager, said: “Agyness sums up effortless cool and this latest collection is just that. My favourite item is the Saturday Dress which takes inspiration from American sportswear style. This can be paired with key pieces from our SS14 range in-store, like the Tassled Saddle Bag and chunky platform Adaya Sandal.” The range is available in-store now at Dr. Martens Newcastle on Grainger Street.
