Wemblex Joins Goodhood on a New Set of Striped Shirts
References: goodhoodstore & hypebeast
London retail label Goodhood works in collaboration with Wemblex, a heritage shirt label to co-design two new button-up shirts. The duo launch two striped tops with star graphics throughout the entire piece in two tonal options of either black and white or blue and white.
Wemblex was first founded back in 1953, officially creating the first supply of Ivy League-themed apparel to young adults that have now set the foundation of the archival designs. The new shirts are inspired by the heritage of Wemblex, referring directly to the dead stock archive of pink-inspired lines with Malcolm McLaren's former partner Vivienne Westwood. She took the archival goods and created his punk rock 'Seditionaries Anarchy' tops.
