After several years of collaborations within the fashion world, artist Sterling Ruby is now launching his very own collection, S.R. STUDIO. LA. CA. Debuting in June, the collection will feature ready-to-wear womenswear and menswear, as well as accessories.
The collection represents the culmination of 10 years of work. Over the past decade, Ruby’s artwork has grown in scope as the artist has experimented with soft sculpture as well as quilts and garments.

“I’m climbing ladders and I’m moving things around, and it has to be a garment that will handle the studio routine,” Ruby told the German magazine and fashion brand 032c in 2016. “I was treating fabric collage elements and sculptural materials, and I started to amass an archive of remnants that I wanted to turn into garments that I could wear. And that became a kind of ritual, an autobiographical recycling.”
