London fashion label Garbstore works in collaboration with eye_C on a new collection designed for the Spring/Summer 2022 season. It features collections from its three brands in-house and blends images from the knitwear stalwart The English Difference and the sportswear range Drop Out Sports.
eye_C captures the new designs in an editorial taking place in Bergen, Norway that takes pieces away from the West London Garbstore base and the inspirations of the pieces. For the seasonal range, Garbstore turns its attention to the London music scene that was prominent during the 60s and the 80s. There was a strong sense of jazz beatnik movement that stemmed from the Ladbroke Grove community, which is also the base location of Garbstore today.
