Founded in 2021 by Central Saint Martins graduate Antonio Vattev, a.v. vattev celebrates the contemporary man through a distinctive style rooted in individuality and cultural expression. Antonio refined his craft at Saint Laurent and is formally an artist-in-residence at SARABANDE, The Lee Alexander McQueen Foundation (2023–2024), where he continued to explore fashion as a form of storytelling.

Drawing from the freedom, attitude, and visual poetry of the ’70s and ’90s music and cinema scenes, a.v. vattev translates cultural memory into a distinctly contemporary language. Each collection channels the spirit of performance, storytelling, and image-making into pieces that resonate with the rhythm of now. Expressive, instinctive, and deeply connected to community.

Tailoring merges with fluid forms, while knitwear and outerwear are reimagined with sculptural cuts and unexpected details, building a wardrobe that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking. Sustainability is woven into this vision: over 70% of each collection is composed of deadstock and organic materials, reshaped through experimental pattern cutting and meticulous craft. Every garment carries its past forward, reimagined as part of a new narrative,  a reflection of the brand’s belief that fashion should inspire without leaving a trace.

More than clothing, a.v. vattev builds a world. An evolving space where culture, sound, and cinema collide with style; where garments become vessels of stories, and each collection expands the brand’s universe of ideas. It offers a curated vision of contemporary life, where creativity, identity, and emotion converge.
