Salehe Bembury dresses with ‘cartoon character consistency’

Today, Salehe Bembury is one of the most in-demand designers in sneakers, who has collaborated with brands including New Balance, Crocs, Versace, Moncler, and Vans. With an aesthetic rooted in a combination of an outdoor lifestyle and funky, organic shapes, Bembury has reimagined streetwear as something as biological as it is mechanical. 

But it’s almost impossible to centrifuge Bembury’s fashion aesthetic from his own brand, and that’s in part by design and what it means to be a creative in the era of social media.
