UNIF has created a cult following not seen in years. Their ’90′s influences are just what our tumblr culture needed. With witty t-shirts and leather separates, UNIF has become every cyber-girl’s favorite line.
Check out our interview with designers, Christine and Eric, here and in our latest issue, available NOW!
Who, if any, are your muses?
Eric once chased a homeless dude four blocks in 90-degree weather to buy his jacket from him. It was torn and patches so many times it looked like a ’70′s Vivienne Westwood piece. The dude thought he was asking for drugs. We ended up giving him $100 for it.
Who are some of your fashion influences?
Just regular people you see walking down the street. Usually old people.
How did you come up with the name UNIF?
We’ve made up all kinds of stories over the years to answer this question. Truth be told, the truth won’t be told.
What piece from your collection are you most proud of?
We’re never 100% happy with anything. Our whole existence is like a giant, self-indulgent, never-good-enough pity party. Seems like that process is good for keeping you creative and always wanting to something better.
