LABRUM and GUINNESS work in collaboration to launch a new collection that honors the London-based designer Foday Dumbuya and his West African heritage and British nationality. He works together with the Irish stout brand and presents a slew of streetwear items made for the summer season. It is meant to be apparel that can be worn with friends whilst catching up over a pint.
The collection celebrates immigrants from Sierra Leone who reside in the UK, which also nods to the designer's hometown. It can be seen in the form of collaborative emblems as friends and families are gathered at pub tables and enjoying a glass of GUINNESS. To nod to West African themes, there are adventurous co-ord shirts and bucket hats with pencil drawings of people playing traditional games by the streetside.
