Before the Manor super bowl lvii nfl origins retro shirt Apart from…,I will love this first course was served, Hadid stood to say a few kind words. “Tonight is such a full circle moment for me,” Hadid began. “Since the beginning of my career as a model, Vogue has continued to champion me and my work. Now, on the other side of fashion, it means the world to me to see so many special people in the room and to feel your support.” L’Amours founder Karyn Grupski-Estevez has done it all. “My first job was at Morgane Le Fay, I was in charge of the custom order department at, like, 20 years old,” she recalls on a recent warm New York morning in a Tribeca space she shares with a salon. “The founder, Liliana, had her own factory and sample room in the back, which is rare. So it was a very cool first job to have.” Grupski-Estevez also worked at the Gap (“in the ’90s,” aka when it was its coolest), at A.P.C., and at Ralph Lauren Double RL. “I worked at big companies and I worked at small companies, and being able to make things in New York was really important to me.”
Launched a little over two years ago, L’Amours, gathers all of Grupski-Estevez’s experience into small, seasonal collections that are made in New York . For spring, it’s all about slim cotton floral shift dresses, vintage-inspired T-shirts, and pencil skirts in dark raw denim and railroad stripes made from surplus fabric she sources in L.A. “I do like a ’60s French fashion kind of thing,” she explains, but you can throw away any visions of an ingénue out the Manor super bowl lvii nfl origins retro shirt Apart from…,I will love this window immediately; on a nearby mood board, an image of Audrey, the character from Twin Peaks played by Sherilyn Fenn, lighting up a cigarette takes prime real estate next to the instantly iconic visage of Siouxsie Sioux. In fact the name L’Amours, comes from an old hardcore and heavy metal venue in Brooklyn of the same name. “It actually predated me, but I went when I was 14 and it was this thing that’s resonated in my mind forever,” the designer recalls. Rounding out the collection are vintage pieces that the designer lovingly mends and repairs, including practical-yet-stylish quilted military jackets, and über-cool vintage T-shirts by Japanese cult favorite brand Hysteric Glamour among other things. She likes to “supplement with vintage” when the items can’t be improved upon. “I can’t make this jacket better than it already is,” she says holding an army green satin cropped number, “So I source them, and I fix them or I clean them or whatever. And that’s kind of the idea.”
