GV x Alexander Girard
$320 SOLD OUTFinal Sale
Our ongoing partnership with the estate of Alexander Girard continues into our SS25 collection with June, a print that Girard originally designed in 1964 during his tenure as the Head of Fabric and Textile Division at Herman Miller. More than 60 years later, June serves as a prime example of Girard's masterful graphic work.
Like many of Girard's prints, June takes inspiration from Girard's life. While working at Herman Miller in Zeeland, Michigan, he developed a particular affinity for the area's wild poppy fields, which notably come into bloom during June. Here, Girard renders a poppy field with fluorescent red flowers, dark turquoise stalks, and a subtle cream ground.
To continue Girard’s emphasis of quality craftsmanship, we had June meticulously reengineered by our Italian partner mill on a summer-weight 100% cotton poplin. Each color was matched to its original Pantone, and extra care was taken to ensure pigments hold fast and resist bleeding. This is the first time June has been printed on clothing.

Our Archive Indian Madras fabrics are dutiful reproductions of fabrics found in the archives of our partner mill in Chennai, India. Each style is hand-loomed, a process takes about four times as long as a conventional loom, but ensures that the fabric's intricacies are executed to the highest degree. Old school production is something we value and practice at our USA-based factories, but it's rare for us to find fabrics made with the same approach. All in, these fabrics create shirts imbued with a human touch that can't be created any other way.

GV x Alexander Girard
A Legacy of American Design
For more than half a decade, we've collaborated with the estate of Alexander Girard to create an ongoing capsule celebrating his most significant textile designs.
Using Girard's original design blueprints from his time as the head of textiles at Hermann Miller, we've recreated each print and textile with comprehensive accuracy. Never before has his work been recreated for clothing, and we're honored to participate in Girard's legacy.
