HOMECOMING

PHOTOGRAPHED BY OLIVER HADLEE PEARCH
STYLED BY CARLOS NAZARIO

  • Navigating the American landscape and meeting constant trips back home to Jamaica impacted how Edvin Thompson became a designer. For the Spring/Summer 2023 collection the creative director and founder of Theophilio pays homage to himself, delivering a range of ready-to-wear ensembles that evoke a sense of nostalgia.

  • Recently showcased at New York Fashion Week, “Homecoming” is a love letter to all the places Thompson has called home. Throughout the collection, he’s infused iconography from the U.S. cities he’s lived in, including New York, Atlanta and Newark, NJ. The result is a wearable biography of his life.
