Ante Clothing Brick Lane

Ante Brick lane is one of my new favourite finds. I bought this beautiful nude silk shirt there this weekend. It reminds me of the Margiela style as it's styling is like a deconstructed shirt with the cut off and turned back sleeve hems, fold over pocket details and neckline. It's oversized and masculine but the silk layer where the fabric is turned over at cuffs and neck contrasts with this to make it feminine. If you visit the store I guarantee you'll find something you love or like me find many many things you love. They also do menswear so take your man with you and get him kitted out in batwing sleeve shirts and Japanese style hoodies.

I went to that shop and really liked it too. The man working there told me he designed it all and I was impressed. Then I went to Bangkok and saw the exact products for super cheap. The Ante guy is just sewing his label into mass produced items and saying its his own boo.

I well liked the shop at the beginning, nice stylish clothes and cosy blend of vintage ornaments.
he did design a few pieces but mostly he just copy off other designer stuff and yes, he does seem to just put his label into mass produced items he got from overseas.
i mean. the shop is lovely but the philosophy of the shop i just do not agree.
