“One Wolf” is a high street fashion label founded in 2012 by Latvian fashion designer Agnese Narņicka. Its unisex, ready-to-wear collections blend functionality with wit, intelligence, and asceticism, portraying the designer’s reflections about the savage aesthetics of a contemporary urbanite.
Experiments with constructions and silhouettes are an intrinsic proposition of the brand, thus breaking conventions of genders and clothing, while mixing up opposing details and contrary styles of classical, casual, and sporty garments.
Raw denim and stone washed jeans stand out as the iconic product of the label, featuring brave lines, distinctive cutting techniques, and clever external details, such as pockets, seams, darts, pleats, and buttons. In the collections, the sets of garments for a modern city dweller include sweaters, cardigans, parkas, hoodies, tunics, t-shirts, and shirts.
With denim being present in each collection, other innovative and durable materials, such as cotton, tencel, modal, and neoprene, are sought out, and a variety of finishing techniques are employed to accommodate the metropolitan character, textures, and tonality. Stone wash, silk-screen printing, and laser treatment for obtaining unique graphics spotlight the label’s styles, which are dominated by a monochrome palette and undertones of the northern landscape.
In its collections, “One Wolf” uses high quality textiles manufactured in Italy, Denmark, and Belgium. The clothing is made in small factories in Latvia, providing work for experienced, high quality masters and preserving local craftsmanship traditions.
Each collection is a new story – the designer’s research and meditation on the out-of-the-ordinary in people and life, and each story fully expresses the nature of the brand – the boldness to live by your own rules. Even while living in a pack, a wolf maintains his independence and character. And so do the people who wear “One Wolf” garments. The philosophy of the label is to inspire wearers to become more courageous, be free, and express their creativity with the help of “One Wolf” clothing, actualising their individuality and uniqueness.
