Launch party at L’ecole National & Gate38

During Copenhagen Fashion week we launched our new -shirt line with prints from renowned photographer Jan Olofsson and his pictures from the 60’s music scene. Together with our neighbor Gate38 we’ve created a paper about the event that took place a Thursday night in August & had  the band “The Slide” play for our guests in our newly renovated showroom in Malmö.

The rain may have been falling over us but we really had a night that rocked

Return of the 60’s

L’Ecole National has collaborated with photographer Jan Olofsson under the trademark Jan Olofsson Collection © and the Malmö based gallery gate38, mixing fashion and photography, resulting in a t-shirt collection.  The collection of t-shirts, consisting of five different 60’s prints of Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, Johnny Cash and Mick Jagger.

The motifs are printed in a way that makes the t-shirts live both in the front & back, in black, white and grey.

Film outside

Film is a recurring inspiration for us at L’ecole National, it’s also a way to escape the outside world for a while & loose yourself in a fantasy or understand the world better.

Since 1991 Stockholm International Film Festival has brought the big screen outside every August, giving us movie classics with different themes each year. This year it’s political, with films like “All the President’s men” & “Hurt Locker” and we can’t wait to sit down with a pic-nic & enjoy a summer night under the stars with a great movie with friends.
