By Design: Any Old Iron

Designer: Andrew Clancey

Collection: SS18

Description: Men’s and women’s tailoring with a twist for that inner rock star

Look and style: I work with a lot of sequins. It’s always going to sparkle!

Inspiration: Musicians past and present. Punk was definitely my first inspiration. I couldn’t sew, so the safety pin became my friend. In the U.K. as a teenager, you could only listen to punk at the school disco, so I think my punk-disco influence was the bastard child of that. 

Anchor piece: The piece that pulls it together this season is a stripe we have created. Each panel is stitched together to create a new fabric. The flip sequin being our signature. 

Any Old Iron’s style: Rock ’n’ roll tailoring with a punk-disco twist! We have dressed Gaga, Cher, Beyoncé, Kesha, Fergie and Miranda Lambert, to name but a few.
