Well-known designer brand Namesake released the image of the 2025 spring and summer series, which was unveiled at Paris Fashion Week last year. It is named “OFFSHORE” to pay tribute to the eldest brother Richard who inherited the family business and devoted himself to the ocean.
A designer brand you must know Namesake
Namesake means people with the same name. Foreign countries often name newborns after deceased relatives and close friends, symbolizing the continuation of blood and the commemoration of relatives. Namesake was created by the three brothers of the Hsieh family, Steve Hsieh, Michael Hsieh and Richard Hsieh, in 2020. Three young men who share the same surname and blood relationship, in the name of their father and with their family as their foundation, describe their diverse growth experiences starting from Kaohsiung Fishing Port, traveling to Tokyo, Los Angeles and Seattle, and creating Namesake, a fashion brand that is avant-garde but full of family warmth.
Leaping onto Paris Men’s Fashion Week
Since its establishment in 2020, Namesake has not only been repeatedly selected by international celebrities, but also quickly entered the official schedule of Paris Men’s Fashion Week in 2022, and was selected as a semi-finalist of the LVMH Prize for Emerging Designers in 2023. Currently, the sales points are spread across well-known selection stores around the world, including North America, China, Japan, and South Korea, and they can also be found in SSENSE and some Dover Street Markets. It is an independent designer brand with a growing international reputation.
