a.v. vattev

a.v. vattev is a London label founded in 2021 by Antonio Vattev, a Central Saint Martins graduate born in Bulgaria. Before starting his own brand he worked at Saint Laurent, Lanvin and Wales Bonner, and in 2023 to 2024 he was an Artist-in-Residence at SARABANDE: The Lee Alexander McQueen Foundation.

The clothes draw on the visual culture of the 1970s and 1990s, from music and cinema to art. Expect precise tailoring, sculptural knitwear and everyday shapes with unexpected details. Collections are made in limited quantities from carefully selected materials. The AW24 collection, 'Superculture', looked to mods, skinheads and punks.

Troye Sivan, Dua Lipa, Paul Mescal and Charli xcx are among the people who have worn it.
