The Metropolis A-line skirt from the DADA! collection offers an edit of a screen-print of an original urban photograph by Luke Pickering, a Manchester based photographer and collaborator of HADES.

The DADA! collection takes inspiration from the Dada movement; a European avant-garde art group whose aim was to create art that transformed daily life for the public: turning it from a vapid and banal experience to an imaginative and creative one.

The Dadaists considered society deeply dehumanising and wished to shock the public out of passivity and the grind of an economy-focused society, through artistic interventions on the street.

The skirts are constructed from a soft and lustrous deadstock fabric from a French Luxury Maison. All the skirts are screen printed in our studio in Birmingham, meaning they are entirely handmade and retain the idiosyncrasies of the human hand.
