From designer Vicky George comes Knitty Gritty Knits, a new range of Urban Clothing that specialise in knitwear and fabrics. Inspired from the raw attitude of the streets, graffiti and the Fashion forward generation. The garments are rich in texture and dimension, hand -crafted and individually designed.
Vicky George and her bother, Photographer Samuel George team up to promote the brand and create shoots that will bring a unique look for the urban knitwear. “Being siblings has its advantages, working together means we are able to push each other further then if we had the constraints of others within our industries. We can discuss new ideas and together look for the type of models and locations that work best” says Vicky.
Vicky also believes that Knitty Gritty Knits is unlike any other. “You don’t see comfortable, colourful knitwear, inspired by what people in the streets would wear, so this is what has made me create such a vibrant and unique look.”
“Photoshoots have consisted of using the streets and alleyways for the simplest locations, to finding our way into abandoned buildings which can be a lot more challenging. Both types of locations offer so much and anyone that can not find locations to shoot with in and around where they live, just isn’t looking hard enough” Samuel George.
