Words With Fashion Friends continues with the designers of MADE Fashion Week, this time with Libertine’s Johnson Hartig.

Patterns of sequins and skulls adorned tartan outerwear and lace dresses alike, while the punky menswear shown alongside the ladies’ clothes injected a rebellious mood into the collection. So what does Hartig think of when someone says the word icon? Read on.
