New Bedstuy “You Are Holy” T-shirt.
(Jennelle Fong and Yasara Gunawardena / For The Times)
A padded waffle shirt worn by Miguel on the cover of a magazine, a hoodie with a furry mohawk stripe worn by Jay 305 front row at L.A. Fashion Week. A certain kind of person is drawn to New Bedstuy because the pieces feel individual and edgy — prompting fans of the look to ask, “Who makes that?” The answer: Johnnie Davis, founder, operator and designer of the brand known for its renegade spirit, with an aesthetic Davis describes as “couture, costume [and] functional.” To be sure: New Bedstuy’s signatures, like pants of colossal proportions or structured jackets available in its FW23 collection, are all wearable with an air of excitement. Take the Holy T-shirt, a statement piece Davis says he would buy for his own loved ones this season. Wearing New Bedstuy helps you “finish this year stronger than the last one” and manifest “a tougher world.”
