History

Founded by artist Christopher Nemeth in 1980s London, the brand emerged from the House of Beauty and Culture collective. Nemeth’s work gained prominence through the Buffalo movement and collaborations with Judy Blame. After relocating to Tokyo in 1986, the label maintained a cult following. Its historical significance lies in pioneering the deconstructionist movement, later influencing major designers like Rei Kawakubo and Kim Jones, who dedicated a Louis Vuitton collection to Nemeth’s legacy.
