Designer Djemal Atacan not only grew up in North London but was born in Camden. Having a particularly personal connection with this uniquely eccentric and culturally varied town it is important to him that he collaborates his work there in this diverse fashion and music filled scene.
The Metal Rooster philosophy is to create innovative designs cleverly put together allowing for each item of clothing to be worn in various ways. Some of the worldly inspirations used are of East Asian origin and the Ottoman Empire's grace, fused with a contemporary western look. M.R is now solidifying its place in Camden and beginning to lead the way in this diverse urban fashion landscape.
Designer Djemal Atacan's was born in 1981 making him the "Metal Rooster" in the Chinese astrology. Given his passion and love for Asia, it seems only right that Metal Rooster would be his brand name.
