FW16 Lou Reed Transformer Knit
The Piece
Details
Lou Reeds Cover for his "Transformer" LP was shot by legendary British photographer Mick Rock. The photo, which went out of focus during development in the darkroom, struck both Rock and Reed as an ideal cover image for Reed’s landmark solo album. The design exemplifies the synthesis of careful planning and happy accident that so often define the most enduring artistic expressions. This knit features the iconic portrait of Reed from his cover, which has reached an almost Che Guevara level of recognizability. The super soft wool combined with the absolutely perfect fit makes this a standout piece of our collection.
