The lilac and black 'Oh Bondage Up Yours!' knit is designed in homage to the iconic style of the late, great, Poly Styrene and Punk Band X-Ray Spex.
We worked with Poly's daughter Celeste Bell on this collection. The design on this knit has been taken directly from Poly Styrene's original hand drawn artwork.
Handcrafted in Scotland by Shirley, Shelia, Finlay & Sharon.
In explaining the meaning behind 'Oh Bondage! Up Yours!' Poly said 'Most people want to be ‘tied up’ because it gives them an excuse not to have to think, but on the other hand they don’t. The song expresses the two things. In the verses it says, ‘I want that’ and in the choruses it says, ‘Up yours’ to all of that.' The vibrant jigsaw of Poly’s story has pieced together by her daughter singer-songwriter Celeste Bell, and writer/artist Zoë Howe in ''.
