In the past, these two Swedes have found inspiration in their travels having been limited to the boundaries of their studio for over a year they took cues from music scenes-rave, punk-as they developed a collection that was more hard-edged than earlier ones. So far they’ve managed well their fall collection is part of Gucci Vault, and their spring collection offered plenty of novelty through the pair’s further expansion into separates, their exploration of sporty elements, and a bit of sex appeal. Now that many brands are jumping on the upcycling wagon, they also have to maintain their distinctiveness in the market. Every six months Rave Review’s Livia Schück and Josephine Bergqvist (who work with secondhand and deadstock fabrics) are faced with the challenge of making something new out of something old.
