Glass presents Sonnet to Liberty – a fashion story by photographer Dave Foster

THE poets, artists and philosophers within us have risen through this period of self isolation. The need to celebrate identity and self expression has given rise to an urban dandy.

But he is not a fop, he is a warrior, a trail blazer an activist driven by a need to challenge the establishment to break apart the rules of convention, his sharp silhouette gives way to a banner of texture, colour and freedom he is a sonnet to liberty, “Mirror my wildest passions like the sea, And give my rage a brother! Liberty!” Oscar Wilde
