Gary Graham 422

Gary Graham creates limited-run collections of women’s clothing at his studio in upstate NY. Garments are made on-site using antique textiles, custom jacquards, and natural fiber wovens from domestic mills. Narratives for each collection combine real stories with fictional characters to blur distinctions between past, present and future in mysterious ways.

The Gary Graham brand was founded in NYC in 1999 and was known for its exquisite detailing, sophisticated craftsmanship and historical erudition. In 2018, the brand was reborn as GaryGraham422. Gary relocated to the small town of Franklin, NY, and reconfigured his production as small-batch fabrication with unique interventions to one-of-a-kind fabrics. The studio’s rural locale has inspired new historical narratives and encouraged experimentation and the exploration of time-intensive techniques.
