5 Designers to Look Out For
Mathieu Schreyer, KCRW DJ.
I’ve always believed that the way you dress is an expression of who you are — it didn’t help growing up surrounded by four sisters and going to French schools!
So, I decided to pick 5 clothing lines and designers that are coming up and taking their craft seriously.
1. Nom de Guerre
This New York-based label has been flourishing for the last 5 years now — city chic meets army classic. It’s all made in Japan. Hipper than hipsters.
2- Chatav Ectabit
All the garments are made in India and are unisex. It redefines cool casual wear that looks effortless.
3- Coming Soon
Parisian-based label from legendary Japanese designer Yohji Yamamato’s daughter! 21st century clothing
4 – Warriors of Radness
This Los Angeles-based company is taking 60′s surf wear to a whole other level.

5 – Beams International
Only retailed in Japan, this store/label is what fashion should be about — affordable, good quality clothes that are, stylistically, looking forward with an appreciation and an understanding of the past.
