about understudy

  • Understudy is a radical return to craft and care in the face of an increasingly automated world. We are an iterative and nomadic artist-run space offering handmade and one of a kind garments and objects. 

All items are handmade or manufactured using small scale production methods. Our goal is to reimagine what clothing can be. To approach self-presentation in a playful and imaginative way, and to foster an improvisational method of dress. 

  • This project is run by Emma and Emi in New York City.
