“Me & Bill” is designed and crafted by Carrie Ashley, a Texan based in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and often found between Chamonix, France and Bozeman, Montana. Carrie hand-embroiders the collection’s vintage, chambray denim shirts and wall pieces with Native-American imagery, gothic script, illustrations of 1960’s Americana and the occasional gold tooth. The result is a combination of Cherokee heritage, flea markets and New England boarding school.
Carrie Ashley brode à la main des chemises “vintage” en denim chambray ainsi que des tissus. Elle y représente des motifs de l’imaginaire amérindien, des textes gothiques, des illustrations de l’Amérique des années 1960 où parfois surgit une inopinée dent en or. Le résultat est un mélange d’héritage Cherokee, de marché aux puces et d’internat de la Nouvelle-Angleterre. Texane d’origine, installée à Brooklyn pendant une longue période, elle navigue aujourd’hui entre Chamonix, en France, et Bozeman, Montana, aux États-unis.
