Basso & Brooke

Label Overview

Bruno Basso and Christopher Brooke met in a London nightclub and launched their namesake line in 2003. After winning London’s Fashion Fringe Award in 2004, the Brazilian-British duo scored a production and distribution deal with Aeffe and joined London Fashion Week a year later. The team is known for theatrical ready-to-wear in gravity-defying proportions and wild graphics (their first collection presented cleverly etched male genitalia as a print), earning comparisons to early John Galliano.
