Enfants Riches Déprimés, "depressed rich kids," was founded in 2012 by conceptual artist Henri Alexander Levy, who treats the label as an extension of his art practice rather than a fashion line. The work pairs LA punk rawness with Parisian fit and fabrication: hand-distressed and hand-painted tees, mohair knits, leather and tailoring, made in small runs split between the brand's LA studio and Italy. Levy calls the result "elitist punk," confrontational by design and deliberately kept scarce, with references pulled from underground art, literature and post-punk.
We carry Enfants Riches Déprimés at Feuille, including tees, hoodies, jackets, jeans and belts, available online and in-store at our Vancouver boutique. The pieces are made to look damaged and worn on purpose, finished by hand so the wear reads as authored rather than accidental.
