![]() SCARABELLI: I was listening to an old interview where you said you watched a lot of movies to get inspired. It’s still an effortless, sophisticated point of view. So yes, it’s different, but the spirit is the same. Our fabrications are better and the construction is better. Now, we have access to better resources and we produce 80 to 90% of the collection in Italy. I’m self taught, the longer i’m doing this, the more clear I am on what I want to say. LORENZO: I like to think that all my collections are different because narcissistically, I feel like I get better with each collection. SCARABELLI: Do you feel like it’s a departure from your previous collections? Putting an eight next to it feels like it devalues it, and I think calling it eternal is just more honest to what we’re proposing at this moment. We stripped it back and only offered what we felt was truly necessary. We designed the collection so that the pieces could transcend time. ![]() I wouldn’t want to call it the eighth if the real message is perpetuity and chasing something eternal. I think my followers were expecting a season eight from me but I’m more driven by the story than honoring. You know, just as I’m anti-seasons, maybe I’m a little anti-expectation as well. Did you get a chance to thumb through some of it? ![]() JERRY LORENZO: I think for a few different reasons. My first question is why you chose to name it the Eternal Collection rather than collection eight? TAYLORE SCARABELLI: I’m excited to talk about the new line. To find out more about the latest drop, we spoke to the founder and creative director of the seasonless brand about faith, films, and quiet chicness. Recently, Fear of God released a women’s line, and today the brand is dropping the Eternal Collection, a line of gender-neutral garments that evoke a ’90s normcore fantasy fit for the likes of JFK Junior and Caroline Bessette-Kennedy-if only they were around to wear them. Today, the brand can be spotted on celebrities like Justin Bieber and Jay-Z, and its ethos-a desire to deliver soft-spoken luxury to the modern consumer-is filling the gap in a market chock full of high volume Insta-trends. Founded by Jerry Lorenzo in 2013, the clothing line quickly revolutionized streetwear, its muted colorways and quality textiles imbuing a luxury appeal in everything from hoodies to oversized tailoring. Fear of God’s rapture-evoking name may mirror the rise of religious fervor in a time of existential upheaval, but it isn’t a conservative moniker.
