The only products of young love are usually broken hearts and (at best) a good mix tape. For Damian Collins and Avigail Claire, it was a sick luxury brand of unisex leather puffers named Silver Spoon Attire. Based in London, SSA consists of men’s and women’s ready-to-wear that crossbreeds English sophistication with edgy street style. The engaged design duo sets their brand apart with unexpected details that might surprise their customers, such as cashmere-lined jackets and satin-lined dresses. Their signature puffers won’t make you look like you’re auditioning for the next Michelin Man commercial and include unusual touches like perforated leather. I think Cupid must have had soft spots for leather and cold weather dwellers when he brought these two together.
