My design partner(Keith Hseith) and I (Myko Lin, conceptor of StandardDeviation) are so excited and honored to be working with Isabel and Rueben Toledo + Patagonia though Otis' mentorship program to create a collection. Yes, it will be menswear! I can't wait to show you some of the art work generated from this project.

In fact, here are some of the drapes so far using different forms of bags as a starting point.

Some inspirations for Spring 2010

The collection is entitled, "Transparency". The inspiration is based on the idea of transparency play and modern architecture. There's been a lot of talk of transparency these days. From politics to social structures, everyone is looking for "transparency".

How many deviations are you from the mean?

The scientific term, Standard Deviation (σ) is the measurement of the dispersion of a set of data from its mean -the more spread apart the data, the higher the deviation. STANDARDDEVIATION or +/- σ will serve in a similar manner, to measure and describe those who fall into those divergences from the mean of fashion in our contemporary lives.

STANDARDDEVIATION's mission is to offer approachable, affordable and inclusive design-led luxury clothing to a global market place. Furthermore, to harmoniously synthesize sportswear, streetwear, and activewear influences with a refined civility using clean and modern lines balanced by meticulous attention to craftsmanship and nostalgia for classic tailored elements.
