Realm & Empire styles a historic 2015
70 years ago VE Day celebrated courage in adversity. Which is pretty relevant to various dimensions of 21st century life. Realm & Empire has got just the style for NOW. The brand was born out of a desire to create something new in a market saturated by suspect ‘heritage’ claims.
Each new season begins with a new field trip to the Imperial War Museums and , the British Museum – an incredible source of inspiration. "With a journal in our back pocket, a camera to hand and a genuine enthusiasm for scouting out interesting pieces of the past, inspiration is sought and investigated sifting through archived garments, documents, artefacts and photographs, made accessible collection. It’s a unique collaboration that sees an archive of such overwhelming historical importance creatively interpreted by our own team into contemporary, stylish menswear collections. The authority of IWM ensures all Realm & Empire apparel is fundamentally inspired by real history and British heritage. Whilst only a small percentage of the IWM’s archive is on full view in the public museums, Realm & Empire has access to it all." Available from http://stylecreep.com
