Retrograde

Info

Built from the ground up: conceptualizing original mockups, defining heavy silhouettes and palettes, and finalizing the vision through a complete lookbook to showcase the collection's identity. Retrograde isn’t about revival for nostalgia’s sake. It’s about moving backward with purpose, reclaiming what lasts, discarding what doesn’t, and presenting it without apology.

"Hamza built the Retrograde collection from the ground up, and the execution was flawless. He didn't just hand over flat designs; he developed entirely custom mockups and dialed in the exact boxy, heavy silhouettes we were looking for. The conceptual photoshoot he directed perfectly captured the structural identity of the brand. He understands streetwear at a technical level that most designers completely miss."
