Deff Leppard's Rick Savage's son becomes model as he fronts huge fashion campaign
Def Leppard star Rick Savage has launched a fashion line alongside his son - with the pair making waves in the fashion world days after Madonna's son hit out at 'nepo babies'
The son of a an iconic rock band has become the latest child of a star to wriggle into the spotlight as a model. Music fans will be aware of the chart topping band Def Leppard.
The group, fronted by singer Joe Elliott, has been churning out hits since 1979 with major smashes including Pour Some Sugar on Me, Let's Get Rocked, and Love Bites. The other members of the band include drummer Rick Allen, guitarist Phil Collen, fellow guitarist Vivian Campbell - and bassist Rick Savage, who also belts out backing vocals.
Rick has been married to Paige Hannon since 2004 and together the couple have three children - including son Scott Savage who is now making waves as an emerging model. Scott's step into the spotlight has been encouraged, no less, by his father as the boys have teamed up for a new campaign.
Overnight Angels Crew is a new fashion brand which is a joint venture between Rick and Scott - and the pair have been doing their best to show off the chic collection of sport-tinged designs. The official Instagram page of the brand has shown the father and son dressed up in items from the collection.
One snap showed Soctt sporting a bomber jacket while posing against a wall with his chart-topping dad. A caption alongside the image stated: "@scottsavage__ rocking our iconic College Bomber Jacket—where timeless style meets modern sustainability."
Sharing more details of the design, the caption added: "Crafted from 100% recycled polyester with quilted padding, it features a ribbed collar, hem, and cuffs, plus two side pockets and a snap dome closure. Designed for comfort and built to last."
The designs appear to have been an immediate hit with fans - with one commenting on the post: "Nice picture of father and son. I'm so syched that the two of you are working together. Ild love to see more of the rick savage line too. The o.a.c. rocks could use a few more pieces for women though. Chill @scottsavage__ your doing great!!!"
The official Overnight Angels Crew website shines a light on the origins of the brand. The About Us page states: "The brand name was born from a place of Savage's nostalgia, inspired by Ian Hunter's title track on his 1977 album, Overnight Angels.
"It was this Summer of '77 that Savage was at a crossroads in his own life. Def Leppard formed that same year, and Savage chose to pay homage to that poignant time in his life with a brand he hopes will inspire others with its gritty attitude and reminiscence."
Proving that the rock star and his son are taking a hands-on approach to business, the statement continues: "Both Rick and his son Scott worked closely with Nick Holland, the go to fashion expert for all Rockstar alike.
"Holland founded the successful clothing line Pretty Green with Oasis' Liam Gallagher. He brings with him a wealth of experience, bringing to life a luxurious brand grounded in the disruptive and evocative nature of the designs."
The brand offers a wide range of apparel for sale - from caps to shorts, hoodies to bandanas. Price points range - with the bomber jacket modelled by Scott retailing at £245 and sweatshirts costing around £120.
Rick and Scott's venture has made waves days after comments made by Madonna's son, Rocco Ritchie, raised eyebrows as he mouthed off about nepo babies. The 24-year-old artist, who is also the son of director Guy Ritchie, mouthed off to Fantastic Man magazine.
He said: 'I always think it's funny that back in the day, some of the most beautiful cathedrals that were ever built would be built by generation after generation of the same family. And now, if you are born from a family – and I'm not saying this is wrong – you start looking at nepo babies and they are not the most interesting bunch, are they?'
