RASP




One more (and last) favorite vender from the Project NYC trade show is RASP, a couple of weeks ago. This is a couple designers working from DUMBO in Brooklyn - again, double score for being local and tripple score for being a couple. 

The jewelry they make, mostly rings, is very dark middle ages fantasy inspired, and have a wonderful roughly handmade quality, as if made in days before technology. It reminded me of Game of Thrones

HVRMINN


One of the lines we were especially impressed with at Project NYC was HVRMINN, a first collection of a young designer that up until now, specialized in Bespoke suite. The cuts are super tight and slimming, looking both contemporary and perfectly historical at the same time. But what was really outstanding was the quality of material and tailoring.
