LRS debuts its SS23 collection in Brooklyn, New York. The brand was recently featured at The Met's 2022 In America fashion exhibition. Creative Director, Raul Solis, chose to stage the collection off the NYFW calendar. "No calendar, No runway, no antics approach is extremely fitting to Raul’s punk influences."
Collection notes
The inspiration for the Spring 2023 collection comes from a battle between countercultures and traditions. LRS is seeking to capture a modernized poetic approach to subculture expressions against the reality of our dark contemporary world.
This season Raul fixated his energy on keeping an almost addictive eye over the elements that keep the brand’s identity extraordinarily individual. Focusing the label’s sharp tailoring sensibility with the energy of such underground scenes like Emo, Punk and indie slices. By Injecting symbols of tradition from the likes of religion, the Renaissance era and folklore the label desires to convey a modern romantic idea of youth culture.
While Raul’s ideas of deconstruction and disproportion keep pushing the brands identity forward. The brand aims to challenge the way you see the past and future with a play on silhouettes. The age-old battle between old vs new has never been so tempting.

About LRS
LRS is a ready-to-wear label focused on reinterpreting traditional notions of American streetwear and experimental fashion by infusing elements of counterculture, art, music, and photography that inspire to transgress the ideas of polysensuality to reflect our contemporary hypermediated world. The pieces aim to explore the boundaries of power, craftsmanship, seduction, self-expression and whimsy to deliver a post modern look.
Since inception LRS has been a fiercely independent label guided by a conceptual interplay of attitude. Raul Solis is a designer from Mexico, raised in Los Angeles, and currently based in New York city. His work in leather, denim, deconstruction, disproportion and tailoring ultimately is a commentary of our multitasking, bricolage world.
