CoastCoast Collections Blog Launch Party

CoastCoast is a new blog/clothing store/ fashion experiment/ art project, that explores fashion, geography, and discarded clothing. CoastCoast will eventually make a map of America through its thrift stores. Every few months, four Parsons grads, living in different parts of the country, will come together to explore a different state. On these epic road trips, they will make a vintage collection inspired by and collected in each of the 50 US states. They will then style & photograph the clothing they find using locals as models and landmarks as backdrops. With a blog, online store, and party CoastCoast hopes to connect past and present, promote reuse, and show how apparel consumption reflects a region's culture.

CoastCoast has already explored their first State, California.

They will be launching their blog and showcasing their first collection by throwing a simultaneous party on the west and east coast. Parties will be held in both San Francisco and Brooklyn displaying the photographs and treasures found on CoastCoast’s journey in California.
