Boom boom pow…the impact of a kicking drum bass vibrates through the body. The cut of a top and hand of a fabric causes tingles of anticipation. But it is the community, the people you love because they share the same music and fashion as you, that makes style and sound so powerful.
“And if music is what feeling sounds like then clothing is what those feelings wear,” says Glencora Twigg co-designer of We3. “So this season we drew on the bond between music and fashion and our own personal connections with music.”
Jess Vaira, Sultry Jazz Songstress- Jess is a creative songwriter with a powerful yet elegant voice trained through years of performing jazz and folk music. When she takes to the stage solo or with her band Truefold, she’s likely to wear the hemp/organic cotton Staccato Sweater and grey Recital Pants (second from left). And when a night on the town involves a drink at The Cellar her chocolate brown and grey Beat Blouse and Progression Pant (far right) will be as hot as the jazz.
Christine Hotton, Rockabilly Rocker- Music takes Christine to all sorts of places- bars with floorboards that quiver, smoky lounges, and gigs with trippy light shows. Music is her link to the edgy place from which she designs-the world at night. Her teal merino wool Kimono Sleeve Essential Top and layers of necklaces (far left) keep her on the brink of cool.
Glencora Twigg, Hip Hop and Reggae Devotee- Reggae music’s off beat accents, relaxed tempo, and social messages find their way into the We3 aesthetic and philosophy via Glencora. The effect is hypnotic when Glencora dances in her burgundy Treble Tunic (that can be worn upside down as a cowl neck top too) and black Bass Belt (second from right).
Your personal identity is created by the style you wear and the music you listen to; but no matter your genre, We3 will dress you to the beat of a different drummer.
