Volume 3

When You Wish Upon A Star

Vol 3

Only few have ever heard the legend of the stars that are among us.

As our story goes, every time someone wishes upon a star, that beautiful flaming rock falls to earth as a human soul.

Meet Nova, Castro, Delta and Atlas: four shooting stars who were granted their souls by the dreamers below.

Meet the Stars

  • Delta

    Delta’s spirit dove from the galaxy with gusto and she landed with her fierce drive and middle finger intact.

    While adventurous and determined, Delta always moved with intention. She believed in taking risks and second chances and could resist anything but temptation.

  • Castro

    Castro was sweet-natured and open-hearted. She fell to earth like glitter and moved through time and space like a fond memory.

    With an itch for adventure and lust for purpose, Castro knew this party started once she made her entrance.

  • Atlas

    Curious by nature and generous by habit, Atlas was the kind of friend everyone wishes for. She was loyal to the fault and never short on grace.

    Atlas craves substance, depth, and harmony none more than her own. Because if there’s one thing she’s gonna do, is protect her peace.

  • Nova

    Queen of the celestial jungle, Nova fell from the stars like her path was a runway. She was passionate in her pursuits, generous with her time, and extra with the rest.

    Nova came to this earth with one mission: Do it bigger and better than the rest.

Volume 2

The Birthday Suit Reunion

Vol 2

Our second collection is a celebration of coming back together. Nostalgic for more than the fashion of another era.

Volume 2 tells the story of two long-lost twins, Dylan and Draya, who discovered each other while in lockdown.

Now, on a June picnic in New York, they meet for the first time to blow out the candles on their birthday cake, together.

It had only been a few months since Draya realized she was a twin. She could hardly believe that someone with her identical brown eyes was walking around and seeing the world differently. But today was the day her world would collide with Dylan.

Across town, Dylan was running late (as usual) for the picnic. Wanting to almost make a good (second?) impression she wore her best suit. It was their birthday after all… 


During the thick of lockdown, it was Dylan who threw herself into discovering her roots. It’s funny how future uncertainty turns your attention to the past.

— The Narrative, The Birthday Suit Reunion

Little did she know…

 

…her ancestry-search would lead her to discover she had a sister. A twin sister. 

Once Dylan broke the ice with her long-lost twin, the two New Yorkers, separated at birth, used the global pause to get to know each other. 

Now, on a picnic in New York, they meet for the first time to blow out the candles on their birthday cake, together.

Volume 1

Put Some Respect On It

Vol 1

Special agents Maya, Simone, and Brock were not your average, regular degular spies.
Women not to be tried with, the three stand as the Commanders of the Ball Busters, a top-secret unit of the Black Gladiolus Party, leading a squad of cat-call assassins.

With her jaw clenched and her mouth buzzing from the spicy gum on the inside of her cheek, Simone spotted her male target.


She adjusted her shades and prepared to follow the cat-calling suspect in question. Just another day of her freshly manicured foot up the ass of misogyny.

Women’s Month Capsule

If one thing is for sure, there’s really nothing that compares to the impact of a woman.

 

Through each released garment, we featured a woman in history you may or may not have heard of.

Sharing powerful stories, recognizing real, and uplifting one another. What could be more female than that?
