Collection 4: American Prep
Arius Juan's Collection 4, "American Prep," is a fusion of historical prep school attire with elements of streetwear and public school uniforms.
Featuring a spectrum of coffee hues and unique pieces like the carbohydrate molecule skirt, the collection explores the intersection of prep and public school aesthetics, highlighting both their distinctions and parallels. It challenges societal perceptions of superiority by showcasing the advantages and disadvantages inherent in each, ultimately celebrating the diversity and richness of both worlds. To bring our vision to life, we capture our looks in evocative settings such as bustling streetwear locales, dynamic train stations, and the cozy ambiance of a bookstore, adding layers of context and storytelling to our designs.
