SAVAGE SADIE ⚔ GRISAILLE GREY

"Transform yourself into a badass buccaneer like feisty Sadie the Goat in this irresistible collection! I crafted an ultra-flattering shape out of smooth grey fabric - made from recycled microfiber! - which features our own pirate power print. The straps have rope-like details woven into them for some extra nautical flair. The (pirate) swagger is in the details: silver accents, a Victorian bow and an enamel pirate talisman. Dare to fly your rebel flag!"

- Marlies Dekkers

FW21 style collection Savage Sadie

"This shoot was a whole new experience for me! It was early, it was cold and windy, and with my hair in dreads, I couldn't hide behind my usual luscious Bardot-locks. There was no hiding behind my usual smile either, because I was channeling mean, gnarly Sadie. But with my dear friend Marlies behind the camera, I felt ready to share the raw, violent side of me that I usually only show my karate partners in the dojo. How liberating it was; an experience I will treasure forever!

As a writer for this glossy, researching all the badass female pirates was incredibly inspiring. Having felt like an outsider most of my life, deciding early on to write my own rules, I could relate to each single story of swashbuckling defiance. But Victorian streetfighter Sadie the Goat was my favorite, and how excited I was to step into her lace-up booties and kick some ass!"

Sadie 'the goat' Farrell
The queen of the waterfront

Some girls want to be princesses when they grow up; Sadie Farrell had a different dream: to become a pirate, and the meanest one at that! Growing up in the crime-filled slums of Victorian New York, Sadie knew how to throw a punch. Described as 'slight of build, but mean and vicious' (surely a euphemism for 'skinny bitch') she became a ruthless mugger at a young age and even developed a legendary signature move: headbutting her victims in the stomach. It earned her her fighting name 'Sadie the Goat'.
One night, Sadie got into a bar brawl with 6-foot tall female bouncer named Gallus Mag who had a gruesome signature move of her own: a headlock during which she would bite off your ear. After winning the fight, Gallus displayed Sadie's ear in jar as a trophy in her bar. That was it! Pent-up and humiliated, Sadie decided to pursue her childhood dream, no matter the cost. She convinced a gang of river pirates that they needed a new leader and within a week, with 'Captain Sadie' at the helm, they had hoisted the Jolly Roger and captured their first boat.
For a year, the gang terrorized the Hudson and Harlem river, attacking ships and pillaging wealthy estates. 'Her ferocity far exceeded that of her ruffianly followers,' Herbert Asbury wrote about Sadie in his 1927 book 'Gangs of New York'. Inspired by the pirate stories of her childhood, Sadie even made some of her crew 'walk the plank'* when they didn't do exactly as she said. But after a while, sick of the raids, local farmers along the river started greeting Sadie and her crew with guns while the seaborne police was getting hot on their heels.
