What are you wearing today?
I'm wearing the IFFR x Funkie House tee, a collaboration between Funkie House and the International Film Festival Rotterdam, happening from January 25th to February 4th. I paired it with the timeless Carhartt WIP Single Knee pant, a wardrobe essential. To complete the look, I've got on the latest Merrell Speed Zip, a new addition to our outdoor brand collection. They're super comfy!
Why did you choose these items?
This staff pick is all about showcasing the T-shirt design I created for the collaboration. I really love movies myself, and I think it’s a great way to get inspired and I see a good movie as a piece of art. I have been visiting IFFR myself for some years now, so I was super excited to make the design for this collab.
Can you share more about the creative process behind the design?
When starting a project, I like to draw inspiration from different brands, companies, and artists, and try out different sketches. For this project, I immediately thought of using the recognizable IFFR tiger. I wanted to transform the classic IFFR tiger into a playful illustration to inspire the new generation. Since I often create illustrations for Funkie House with classic cartoon characters, I decided to combine these elements into a fun scene - the IFFR tiger just chilling and watching a movie. The text "Street Scenes, Screen Dreams" represents a mix of streetwear and cinema culture.
