Oasis star Liam Gallagher unveiled as new face of Stone Island
Liam Gallagher has been unveiled as the new face of Stone Island.
The 51-year-old singer is known for having sported a parka as part of his signature look since shooting to fame as part of Oasis in the 1990s and has now teamed up with the luxury fashion house that specialises in men's outerwear after years of wearing the brand's jackets and coats.
In the new photoshoot, Liam wore the brand's Jock jacket which follows an anorak style and is emblazoned with the signature compass badge on the left-hand sleeve.
In a Q+A accompanying the shoot, Liam was asked how he feels about "modern" approaches to life, and whether he prefers things that are of a more "classic" taste nowadays.
He said: "All this new stuff doesn’t do it for me. It all stems from the past, which is classic."
The 'Wonderwall' hitmaker is part of the brand's ongoing ‘Community as a Form of Research’ project alongside other famous faces such as DJ Peggy Gou, actor Russell Tovey and skateboarder Sage Elsesser.
Liam got his first Stone Island coat when he was just seven years old and after an incident in 2017 that saw several of his favourite jackets stolen from his hotel whilst he was performing at the Glastonbury Festival, he put out a public appeal to get them back.
In an X post, he wrote: "To the **** who stole my stone island parkas from my hotel room while I was playing Glastonbury hand them over all will be forgiven LG."
The news of Liam's fashion collaboration comes in the wake of the Oasis reunion with the singer and his previously estranged older brother Noel, 57, calling an end to their 15-year feud for a massive reunion tour in 2025.
Tickets went on sale at 8am in Ireland and 9am in the UK on Saturday (31.08.24) but many fans were left frustrated as ticket sites crashed due to the huge demand.
The 17-date stadium tour sold out in mere hours.
