AIREI
A Los Angeles–based label that offers a fresh take on contemporary ready-to-wear. Creative director Drew Curry founded the brand in 2021 after studying the political & technical history of cotton—an exploration that informed the brand's signature deconstructed aesthetic. Its visibly stitched, pieced-together style is also paralleled in the brand's name, which is translated from the Greek expression "to cut away." Across the collection of relaxed open knits, asymmetrical quilted vests, & paneled denim, raw thread detailing serves as a reminder of each garment's underlying components. Challenging traditional tailoring, AIREI makes clothing for the unconventional.
