An art and upcycling gallery dept clothing that redefines streetwear


The Gallery Department: What does it do?
Gallery Dept., a Los Angeles clothing brand founded by artist and designer Josué Thomas, was established in 1997. As a visual artist, Thomas founded the brand as a hybrid of art and fashion. Pieces are hand-painted, distressed, dyed, or reworked according to the owner's vision. What is the slogan of the brand? The art I'm referring to is called "art that kills.".
Gallery Dept. challenges fashion's obsession with perfection and seasonal turnover with clothes that feel authentic, raw, and personal. Every item in Gallery Dept. is treated as a wearable artwork, making it feel like an object of collecting rather than just a piece of clothing.
Gallery Dept. combines streetwear and art.
Paint splatters, patches, and deconstruction were used by Josué Thomas to rework vintage clothing in his Los Angeles studio. In no time at all, his art project caught the attention of musicians, stylists, and other creatives.
There were several celebrities wearing Gallery Dept. jackets, jeans, and flannels at the event, including Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, and LeBron James. As a result of its global success, the brand gained support from the biggest names in culture.
As a raw, experimental, and anti-corporate entity, Gallery Dept. has remained unaffected by mainstream attention. Every collection from Thomas' studio is loud, layered, and full of stories.
Is it unique that the Gallery Department specializes in so many things?
The following are some reasons why Gallery Dept. stands out from the thousands of fast fashion brands and lookalikes:
Recycled aesthetics first
Streetwear upcycling was pioneered by Gallery Dept. By transforming vintage Levi's or old band tees into modern art, the artists create stunning work. In this case, there are imperfections on purpose. Objects that are distressed tell a story. Uniqueness is what makes each piece special.
In two. A paint-splattered design signature
Splatters made by hand are a trademark of the brand. Quite messy. Everything is in chaos. Each item becomes an abstract expressionist piece when walked.
A limited number of units will be available
Gallerie Dept. prefers scarcity over mass production. Most pieces are one-offs or small batches. It is considered a high-end brand by collectors and resale shops due to its rarity.
In this year's fashion show and art exhibition
It isn't just streetwear. Wearing artwear is a fashion statement. In addition to gritty fashion design, Josué's approach combines gallery-worthy ideas. There's a sense of intention, aesthetic, and edge in every design, whether they're flared jeans or cropped jackets.
