A new fashion store for East-London with a famous owner:
Armed with a decent punk pedigree, Joe Corre has opened the doors of Terrorist, his new East London menswear shop. Corre, the son of Sex Pistols manager Malcolm McLaren and punk/new wave designer Vivienne Westwood, says he’s simply building on the family tradition of combining fashion with attitude. But Terrorist? Little severe, perhaps? “It’s just a word that’s used to describe the enemy,” Corre says. The clothes are designed by Simon Armitage (AKA “Barnzley”) and range from day-glo camouflage jackets to T-shirts bearing the images of Geronimo and Napoleon. The shop is, well, bizarre. Among the threads are an Inuit bow and arrow, chainmail suit, stuffed boar, books, and even a prosthetic leg previously worn by a member of the Hell’s Angels. “We have a Hell’s Angel’s leg here. They’re terrorists right?” Right.
