Specialties
We are ADBD, a contemporary minimalist lifestyle brand from Los Angeles, California. Each garment is made by hand utilizing a balance of old world machinery, modern ink application, complex dying techniques and high quality finishing. Our signature material is a blend of organic cotton and imported hemp rayon that breathes and flows - presenting an incredible hand, unprecedented durability and natural antimicrobial benefits.
Our brand identity is an uncarved block. It represents the power of the sculpture before the sculpture begins. We believe our most true creative form is that which has yet to be carved. It is through simplification that complexity exists. One's natural, inherent strengths is its most powerful. The process of discovering those qualities requires the elimination of pre-definition. A simplification. An uncarved block.
ADBD is designed by founder and creative visionary, Adam Derry.
History
Established in 2007.
We began in 2007 with a simple mission to both make brands. And to make brands better. We evolved into our own lifestyle expression in 2013 with the opening of our flagship store on Fairfax Avenue in Los Angeles. In 2016, we opened ADBD Hollywood at the W Hollywood Hotel.
