Who Decides War's SS24 Collection: Deepening Roots and Expanding Horizons
Who Decides War, a New York-based trailblazer in streetwear, introduces its SS24 collection, "ALTERATIONS CONSULTANTS". This season marks a pivotal moment for the brand, not only advancing its eco-conscious ethos but also expanding its creative boundaries. Founders Ev Bravado and Téla D’Amore, inspired by their rich personal histories and environmental concerns, presented their collection at New York Fashion Week with a show titled "ALTERATIONS CONSULTANTS." This homage to Bravado’s father's tailor shop underscores a deeper narrative woven into each garment, blending personal legacy with innovative fashion.
This season is particularly noteworthy as it unveils WDW’s first comprehensive womenswear line, alongside an array of other products. Emphasizing their denim-centric philosophy, the collection refreshes WDW's iconic denim jackets. These feature new takes on the stained glass window motif, remixed embellishments, and distressed detailing, showcasing the brand's unwavering commitment to evolving its denim narratives.
The collection’s standout pieces illustrate the brand's innovative approach to fabric tailoring. Highlights include a reconstructed deep navy suit with white stitching that catches the eye, a black leather asymmetrical zip jacket paired with a matching mini skirt, and a contemporary multi-fabric gown in dusty green and champagne tones. These items not only reflect WDW’s aesthetic evolution but also their ability to push the boundaries of conventional streetwear design.
“This collection is particularly special because it focuses on the tailoring notes that Ev saw throughout his childhood, growing up in his father’s tailor shop. It was our first full range of products, down to accessories and footwear. We pushed the conversation further of what we can put forth as a brand, and we are more focused now than ever,” shared D’Amore and Bravado. As Who Decides War continues to shape the narrative of streetwear, the SS24 collection stands as a testament to their growth, vision, and the profound influence of personal heritage on their creative process.
