Duchamp Spring/Summer 2016 Menswear

Founded in 1989, the London-based luxury goods business initially specialised in men’s accessories, characterised by bold colours and flamboyant designs. The introduction of clothing in 2011 was a decisive moment for Duchamp, putting it on a path towards becoming a true lifestyle brand.

The name of the brand was inspired by the late artist Marcel Duchamp. He was a painter, sculptor, and avid chess player whose work is associated with dadaism and conceptual art. Along with Picasso and Matisse, he was regarded as an artist who contributed significant development in painting and sculpting.

Today the brand still pays homage to its inspiration by a clever use of print and colouring techniques. Almost all fabrics are exclusive and all print has a painterly feel. There is a nod to chess, musical ideas and gentleman’s games throughout the product.

Today Duchamp has established a design philosophy centred on creating directional Menswear and Accessories, which epitomise accessible luxury and reflect the lives and aspirations of men today.

Duchamp London has its own stores in Central and West London, concessions in Harvey Nicols as well as long standing wholesale relationships with Selfridges and Harrods in London, Bloomingdales in the USA and Harry Rosen in Canada. There are also over 50 independent stockists throughout the UK and Ireland.
