Avant Basic

Avant-basic elevates the basic wardrobe staple, the white tee, the straight-leg jean, the tote bag, through careful curation, proportion play, and the occasional avant-garde intervention such as a deconstructed shoulder or an unexpected textile. Simplicity is treated as sophistication rather than a default. Perfectly cut white or cream tees are the foundation. Wide-leg or tapered trousers in neutral tones go with them. A single statement-cut blazer or coat carries the outfit. Simple leather accessories and clean sneakers or loafers finish it, plus one unexpected design-conscious piece.
