Designers Nick and Jenny Clegg
Based: Auckland
federation is a streetwear label from NZ that we made at the start of the new millennium which nick and jenny amalgamated to create unprecedented radness from NZ to all around the world.
what happened was when jenny’s world of high fashion collided with that of a pro skater (that’s nick, obvs), federation was born into the big hole that was post code: conceptual street wear, NZ, The World.
jenny loves to use those top quality fabrics you can only get if you’re in the know as the canvas for her pictures and design concept stuff, and nick loves all things that are federation. oh, and nz, and skating.
this means that other people think they are really cool, especially like the time back in ‘07 when our favourite magazine Sportswear International (we love this story as we kinda reckon this is like our sartorial bible) put federation in the top FIVE finalists in the world for Best Sports/Street Collection and once when they had this little book called Open – The Storebook, they put our flagship store in auckland in it as one of the best retail stores in the world! also exciting is how nylon mag, the coolest magazine in the history of the such are collaborating with federation to make the best t shirt you ever saw.
oh, and in other news, we’re doing some special thing with steve aoki and dim mak! yay federation etc, but that is neither here nor there for now at least because nick and jenny and the team will be super busy in the warehouse by the city by the sea being all inspired by fabric plus things plus colour plus outside plus in you plus yay plus: FEDERATION HAS DESIGNS ON STREETWEAR, yes.
