At AlphaOmega London we have the highest dedication to the quality of our output. With this in mind we’ve rebranded the podcast, it has moved and continues over on a different feed. If you search Fashion Vanguards on the podcast app or whichever service you’re listening on you should be able to find us and listen to our brand new series of podcasts on Sustainability. Carry on the Protest

Our third and final installment in our ‘protest in fashion’ series answers whether fashion will once again ride the waves of subculture to bring about trends more subversive and iconic than eras past. It's widely accepted that the 'bubble up' effect from youth subculture has over the years validated the industry's presence as an expressed/applied art form.
Yet in a postmodernist world where subcultures are forced into obscurity, we discuss whether fashion's incessant appropriation of subcultures could in fact be the catalyst to its untimely demise and how the industry will struggle to remain relevant to the next generation without it.

In our second instalment of the series, we delve further into the world of protest behaviour and subcultures, discussing their impressionable nature on individual identities and style.
As we take a look back at subculture's revolutionary beginnings - born out of resistance to oppression - we discuss its imminent demise throughout the ages, helped by an industry whose hunger for cult objects fuelled fashion trends and helped to line the pockets of major brands.
As subcultures have over the years existed in a state of ambiguity and fluidity in the online world, we analyse how subversive we truly are and whether we really have a need to express our collective existence through our personal style.

The first in our series on protest in fashion, deals with the topic of identity and the future of subcultures in an ever more subversive world.
