Designer Nadia Atique has been a fan of Liverpool Football Club all her life. A rising star in the world of fashion, her Graduate Fashion Week show, which was a collection inspired by the colours and styles of the club kit, was written about in Vogue.

For Statues Redressed, she’s created a piece for the legendary manager Bill Shankly, who transformed the fortunes of Liverpool FC during his 15 years at the club. As a sign of her appreciation for all that he achieved, she’s made him a cape fit for a superhero, with the words Shankly Our Hero on the back.
