Designers Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne, both born and raised in New York City. In 2008 they created street-savvy clothing line Public School, which is designed and produced entirely in New York City’s Garment District, is redefining the landscape for men’s tailored sportswear. Their signature silhouettes, such as the stretch leather and ponte vest and ankle-length slash pocket trouser, are designed for the culturally convergent modern man. Chow grew up in Queens and studied communications at New York University. When he met Osborne, who was raised in Brooklyn, they both worked at Sean John, P Diddy’s streetwear label.
In 2010, Public School was selected as one of the brands to participate in the inaugural class of the CFDA {Fashion Incubator} program. The brand won the 2013 CFDA Swarovski Award for Menswear, the 2014 CFDA Menswear Designer of the Year Award and, most recently, the designers took home the International Woolmark Prize. They bring innovation and something so clean to the fashion industry. Now venturing off into womenswear I know they'll bring a different aesthetic for women.
