lourdes new york

Launched just before the pandemic in 2020, Lourdes New York is the project of Queens-born designer Andreas Aresti, who honed his craft at influential brands like Yeezy and Hood By Air. Named after his Peruvian mother, the brand is a deeply personal exploration of Aresti’s multicultural upbringing, blending his family's immigrant story with a New York-centric design language. The collections are defined by an innovative and often irreverent approach to wardrobe staples, featuring artfully deconstructed garments, multi-pocketed jeans, and pieces with an askew sense of proportion. Lourdes reimagines everyday basics through a conceptual lens, turning windbreakers into dresses and transforming simple shirts into complex, layered forms. The brand debuted at Paris Fashion Week, quickly gaining notice for its fusion of utilitarian absurdity and elevated streetwear, establishing itself as an emerging name in the American fashion landscape.
