About 6397
Stella Ishii is the founder and co-owner of The NEWS, the New York-based fashion showroom which plays host to a selection of brands. In the Spring of 2013, Stella founded 6397, an alphanumeric rendering of N-E-W-S on a telephone keypad; the brand reflects her personal style and the women who work alongside her. With a design philosophy driven by real life, 6397 celebrates the spirit of individuality and community, with nods to timeless fashion, youth and counterculture. The NY flagship store opened recently; an outlet stroke gallery space with a DIY mentality.
Collection Overview
A fresh take on basics, 6397 ditches the slouch with a selection of warped prints, oversized silks and playfully rebellious graphics. Their Spring/Summer ’19 collection is a vibrant take on statement lounge dressing via relaxed shapes and youthful attitude.
KEY ITEM: LEAF CARDIGAN
‘We saw many cool knit jumpers and cardigans this season, but this 6397 cardigan stood out as something bold, with a dose of new wave attitude.’
COLOUR PALETTE & PRINT
A call to arms for lively staples, the collection features baggy houndstooth pants, printed tees, recreational leaf motif cardigans, and more. With a playfully sexy ethos, the brand’s founder elaborates on the method to her mindset: ‘there’s nothing sexier than a cleverly revealed sliver of collarbone or the nape of a neck’.
Buyer's Notes...
‘We chose this colour palette as the monochrome and light wash denim compliment the blush pinks really well. The pieces pair together in an effortless way. ‘
STYLING
