Wunderkind - Proenza Schouler

“What’s subversive and young and cool now is to be old again - it’s anti-anti” -Lazaro Hernandez




The fierce fashion duo Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough created their formidable house Proenza Schouler in 2002 as a thesis project while studying at Parsons School of Design. The collection immediately catapulted them into star status when it was quickly purchased by the powers that be at Barney’s. The team perpetually sent parades of models swaddled in sporty, youthful, 80’s inspired attire sauntering down the runway. And have, in a relatively short period of time, become one of today’s most influential designers. Now, the boys decided to stretch their design wings a bit by introducing a collection of textiles for archetypal interiors powerhouse Knoll. The collection reflects the designers idea of “Nonchalant luxury” by combining simple neutrals with dramatic colors.
