This collection was shot at Rachel Antonoff’s childhood home and modeled by four comedic actors (and one dog) who were cast to play Rachel’s family members - Susie Essman (Curb Your Enthusiasm), Bob Balaban (Gosford Park), John Reynolds (Search Party), and Sarah Ramos (Parenthood).

“We’re tired of main character energy. We’re over the pressure to be ‘on’ and the lonely core of narcissism. We wanted to create a collection of choose-your-own adventure pieces that evoke the jouissance of a solo roller coaster ride, a few stolen hours dedicated to play. Sometimes sophisticated, sometimes silly, with a few sneaky little details, these outfits are both standout and beloved, a detour from the expected. It’s character actor energy. Fuck the hero’s journey. Let’s go to Disneyland.”
