Although they admit that they prefer to work with monochromatic color schemes, their Spring/Summer 2014 collaboration with Ester Partegas yielded a vibrant series of prints that they applied to menswear and womenswear. The collection has a breezy casualness that belies its impeccable tailoring, clever cuts and thoughtful draping that encourage the fabrics to breathe naturally.
"Our latest collection is our most ready to wear," Lau says. "Ester is an old friend who lived in our studio during our collaboration."
FfiXXed offers buyers shows in New York City, Paris and Tokyo, and shops distribute the brand throughout Europe, Asia, Australia and the United States.
"Our dream is to mount a runway show at New York Fashion Week," Lau says.
Picken add: "And we hope to grow and to hire more staff, so the two of us aren't doing everything ourselves!"
