Description

Who we are
Charles Jeffrey LOVERBOY is the fashion house founded by Glaswegian designer Charles Jeffrey.

Its visual identity is steeped in Jeffrey's autobiographical primary research, with collections anchored by Charles' personal styling codes, as well as those of his friends and collaborators.

The result is a potent clash of references both subcultural and traditional, Scottish and pagan, rooted in queer culture & interpreted through an illustrative & experimental approach to design.

"LOVERBOY has cultivated its own strong visual language - I'm looking for someone who loves that world and wants to contribute to expanding it and communicating it to our ever increasing global community through purity and authenticity of practice"

Charles Jeffrey, Creative Director
