Collection 001
Untitled Power Button
Booting up. Loading Screen. Player X, Start. In a post-modern world. You are the master of your own universe, university, and understanding. A creation of your own school of thought. No fake news, no real news either. A constantly decaying and growing being in the world of your own fashion. Post-apocalyptic, psychological, and art philosophy referenced, littered with a bit of brutalism to demonstrate the love we have for paradox and contrast, our favorite tools and inciters of mental play. Public Art. 3-5% troll. 97%-95% the same as everyone else with our own unique footprint. For the historical archives of generations past, stuck rooted in futurism unable to see what is right in front of them.
There are elements of disassociated somewhat sophomoric Easter eggs left for the tech and fashion art nerd mystery seeker, a bit windows 95, paint, and keeping our inspiration well balanced, and NOT TOO HIGH BROW… Not only do we include art objects referencing things like Warhol’s cornflakes, but we also put certain looks together like LOOK 009 that is both something saucy and beautiful you might see on a Milan runway but could be rocked in the club or at a causal day event by the smooth-talking fly artist type who stole your date. Fit the part and the role regardless. ICONIC + TIMELESS.
This first concept is a commentary of the fragmented societies and realities we all attempt to navigate going forward in this weird weird world. Creating and Releasing Tension. Like the magic in music and film when a plot thickens something awes us or a melody captures a moment in time and makes the heart sing.
With our first collection, we are bridging the gap between very different art worlds and are connecting and giving voice and platform to the cultures and communities most marginalized by the effects of climate change and social justice issues, aka the space between. Close these chasms. Fill the shelves with the missing books of our ancestors. Of one, come many, all are welcome.
We have prepared for you, to experience digitally, a ready-to-wear luxury streetwear collection, with matching art objects, accessories, and a few standalone pieces like hoodies and tees.
The short film, accompanying music, visual art, and fashion pieces were all prepared for you solely by our designer Skelly to be facilitated and celebrated together.
Collection-based, M.de Une de Une focuses on creating and curating Objects of VALUE for impact. We juxtapose art alongside rare sneakers and fine luxury streetwear essentials. A space for film music fashion and art to be celebrated and facilitated together. We are COLLABORATION-focused with artists and their audiences to give them a voice and platform. Auctioned for the benefit of those communities who need uplifting. These are extremely LIMITED pieces and the proceeds are donated to COMMUNITIES made invisible by the systemic social justice and environmental-climate issues we face today. All materials are sourced in small batches from fair-trade local vendors in Los Angeles, and each piece is manufactured by hand here. All objects of value are designed and created by masters of their respective arts. Fashion pieces are made to order with the art and are only made once in the size requested. Never again. No scale, no supply, only demand, and absolute rarity. For serious collectors only. Each Collection in 3 Parts, Film Referred.
(1). ART OBJECTS (2). 1/1 SHOE FASHIONS (3). UNIQUE READY TO WEAR + HAUTE COUTURE GARMENTS+ACCESSORIES

In addition to our own creations, we carry an eclectic variety of similar brands for ANY + ALL styling needs.
INITIATIVES:
10% of all proceeds go to organizations like Virgil Abloh’s ‘Post Modern’ Fashion Scholarship Fund, NAACP LDF, ACLU, Wildfire Relief Funds helping people recover from climate change related fire displacement, and during the holiday season we support our local outreach with donations and volunteers.
Materials and feel for this collection are luxurious, quality-focused, and rare. Always Unisex, always comfy, and a balance of flow and style. Big cuts baggy and still somewhat form-fitting. To make you look great and feel loved. We use as many sustainable materials as possible, almost all of which are sourced locally in Los Angeles. Most of our pieces are organic heavyweight cottons and terrys, with only a very limited number of our pieces containing any synthetics whatsoever. Our hoods and jackets are lined with our logo pattern printed on silk and satin for an over-the-top royal luxury feel. Our exotics and leathers are sustainably and humanely harvested and are fully trackable and traceable. All organic animal byproducts used are directly recycled waste from the meat industry that would otherwise be thrown away or burned and contribute further to carbon emissions and an unsustainable version of earth that we are not going to participate in destroying.
This collection will release to the public as S/S 2022 + A/W 2023 for luxury + streetwear markets.
These pieces will be made available for retail release with only a few select retailers and on our site. https://deunedeune.maison/
At this time, we are only able to work with highly valued and well-established retailers. We apologize for any inconvenience we are very small and targeting a very specific niche .
If you are interested in carrying our brand, and would like access to our wholesale pricing for retailers, please email our concierge department
