About the brand
Geoffrey B. Small is an American designer who started in Boston, selling jeans at a Gap store in 1976 before making clothes himself, and built one of the first businesses in fashion on remaking recycled garments, tens of thousands of pieces out of his own Kingston Street workshop through the 1990s. He has shown in Paris since 1993, more collections there than any other American designer, and after 2001 restarted alone in Cavarzere, outside Venice, where everything since has been cut and sewn by hand in tiny editions for a handful of shops worldwide.

Care guide
Hand wash gently or take it to a professional; no bleach, cool iron while damp, line dry, no tumble. Hand-worked buttonholes and hand-felled seams do not want a machine. Unbutton the braces before cleaning.
