New York City-based genderless label, Tanner Fletcher unveiled their Autumn/Winter 2023 collection “Slumber Party” shot by Sara Bouwman & Shane Reynolds.
The label’s latest outing finds inspiration in the joyous memories of long, carefree nights with friends, indulging in the youthful spirit of mischief and camaraderie. Picture this: Sitting in your bedroom, in a sea of floral wallpaper, ruffle heart pillows on the bed, windows adorned with delicate pink curtains and a landline sitting on your desk, covered in feathers. You finish a diary entry and are eagerly awaiting your friends’ arrival. You’re planning to do each other’s hair and try on your best looks for fun, maybe shoot a music video on the family camcorder. You need to find an outfit to go with the heart locket waist chain and new jeans to which you’ve added extra rivets. The doorbell rings, you run downstairs, open the door, and the slumber party begins!
“This is my favorite collection to date,” says co-founder Fletcher Kasell. “It’s so reminiscent of a familiar yet distant time. As Tanner and I continue to grow up, we have begun to notice how quickly we float from one chapter in our lives to the next. This collection is a reflection of what we’ve seen, what we long for, and what’s to come.”
Tanner Fletcher reminds us that we’re never too old to have a slumber party and that getting dressed should always be as fun. With the latest offering, the designers encourage us to break the rules and let our personalities shine through with every look. So, blast “Bubble Pop Electric” by Gwen Stefani, grab your friends, and let the slumber party begin!
The Slumber Party collection by Tanner Fletcher is highlighted by a considered mix of vintage and modern shapes, presenting a range of 33 looks with approximately 70 garments in total. Rivets, ruffles, and corset detailing tell the story of the season atop whimsical silhouettes. Playful shapes are balanced by a rich, sophisticated color palette of mauve, pink, and red, along with the wardrobe staple colors of black, white, and ivory.
