The Explorers
Maritime meets deco meets old Shanghai in a love song to the garments of utility
Acouple with a valise full of surplus military and well worn tailoring, rolled cuffs on a soft and full herringbone twill collecting sand from far off beaches.
We explore tones and shapes that feel a little more naive. Colours pulled from the archetypes of 50’s and 60’s electric guitars, in their own turn inspired by automotive design of the era. A play shirt in brown rayon strewn with smouldering cigarettes.

Proportions that are both elegant and utilitarian, forms inspired by the archetypes of working garments. Our explorers dress for utility and comfort in traditional shapes that are at once familiar yet new.





























IInspired by artists and workers, formality made do with pieces at hand. Georgia O’Keefe’s “Black Place” and the hopefulness of a new world. Nostalgia rather than costume, clothing rather than fashion.
