As golden rays hint at autumn’s allure, the fashion landscape ushers in a groundswell of change. Leading the pack? Faith Tribe Ltd., debuting a dynamic roster of Ambassadors, representative not only of their brand ethos but also a paradigm shift in how the world views fashion.
The imminent launch of the Faith Tribe membership platform marks a watershed moment. With it, the horizons of the fashion world stretch, integrating the tangible allure of traditional fashion with the limitless possibilities of the digital realm— a “phygital” experience. This seamless blend, designed to foster connections in both realms, is not just innovative; it’s revolutionary.
The debut ensemble of Ambassadors isn’t just a random assortment of names. They’re chosen stalwarts, echoing Faith Tribe’s core beliefs. Maria Buccellati, a force in the industry and Faith Connexion’s president, couldn’t contain her excitement. “The Ambassadors,” she declared, “are emblematic of our Tribe’s spirit. Their dedication to both craftsmanship and sustainability is not just commendable, it’s the embodiment of our ethos.” A sentiment that, Andrea Abrams, Faith Tribe’s Chief of Strategy, further echoes, emphasizing their pivotal role in inspiring the community and underscoring the significance of ‘phygital’ innovation.
So, who exactly are these Ambassadors?
First up, Alexandre Bertrand. Parisian streets have been the canvas of his fashion journey. Transitioning from an influential stylist to the coveted position of Head of Design at Faith Connexion, Bertrand’s belief in a collective approach underpins his every creation.
Then, there’s Winston Bartholomew III or ‘Barth’ as he’s popularly known. What’s remarkable about Barth is his shift from the world of architecture to fashion. Over two decades, he has not only mastered on-demand manufacturing and styling but also forged associations with legends like Snoop Dogg. His win in the HBO series “The Hype, Season 2” further solidifies his place in the fashion pantheon.
Nayibe Warchausky brings an intriguing cocktail of artistry. The Venezuelan’s foundations in architecture, sculpture, and jewelry design have translated into her innovative approach to wearable art. Her genius? Expanding her scope to include home jewelry crafted from unconventional materials.
Lastly, but by no means least, is Andrea Albrizio. A wunderkind of the fashion realm, Albrizio’s rise, sans formal training, is the stuff of legends. His graduation collection in 2023 wasn’t just apparel; it was a pioneering “phygital” masterpiece that sent ripples across the fashion cosmos.
In keeping with its commitment to innovation, Faith Tribe isn’t stopping at this quartet. The platform intends to roll out a new quartet of Ambassadors every six months. The agenda? A tapestry of events, products, and activities, with each thread intricately woven with the genius of these Ambassadors.
But before that, in a move set to galvanize the fashion world, Faith Tribe is all set to flag off the Phygital Fashion Show at the Digital Fashion Week NYC. Scheduled for September 9th, New York will witness Winston Bartholomew and Andrea Albrizio unveil their enthralling “phygital” collections.
“We’re not just changing the game; we’re redefining it,” proclaims Wahid Chammas, Co-founder of Faith Tribe. Their mission? To open the floodgates of state-of-the-art tools and leadership, enabling designers to etch their mark with distinction.
In a nutshell, with its Ambassadors, Faith Tribe isn’t just forging a path; it’s crafting a new horizon. And for those watching? It promises to be a scintillating journey. For a closer look, reach out to hello@faithtribe.io and witness a fashion revolution.
