A  B  O  U  T

My favorite pieces of clothing I own are from my parents closets 30 years ago. My moms jacket from college, my dads striped t-shirt from the 90s, my grandpas passed down cowboy boots. When they were my age, things were built differently. More time and energy went into every stitch before "efficiency" and "optimization" became common place in the quarterly review.  Now, with fast fashion eating our pockets and piling up in a landfill to never degrade (guys, your lululemon pants stay on the earth forever), it's hard to find clothing that isn't the cheapest possible version of what it claims to be. Plastic fabric, plastic tags, printed labels or designs, and thin wovens that only last a few years. What happened to patches, embroidery, and clothes made to survive the next trend?

 

Buck and Billie is a story of old clothes becoming the most valuable thing in  our closets. Clothes that get better with time and that we can pass on to our daughters.

 

We hope you love it as much as we do <3
