Two years down the safer route was as far as he got. Shortly after he turned 20, Andrew dropped out and enrolled in fashion school in Vancouver, an experience which he’s now seamlessly merged with his background in marketing. As a key figure in the city’s fashion scene, he is dedicated to building a community around experimental fashion, an aesthetic that Vancouver’s subdued scene has traditionally lacked. By organizing events, creating spaces for self-expression, and connecting like-minded individuals, Andrew is cultivating a new generation of fashion enthusiasts who, like him, aren’t afraid to experiment and push boundaries.

By then, Lambo had expanded his creative range to include tattooing, learning from a mentor who introduced him to the deeper facets of the street art scene. His artistic journey took a turn at 22 when he began working on canvases and showcasing his work in galleries.

Later, Restrepo attended college at Polimoda in Florence, Italy, a decision that further shaped her perspective on fashion. “It really opened my mind to a whole other world,” she says, reflecting on how exposure to diverse styles and cultures expanded her creative vision. Upon returning to New York, she quickly became known for her keen eye and ability to blend streetwear and high fashion with playful ease.
