Denim-on-denim originated in the 1950s and functions as a loaded metaphor for American culture, history, and contradictions.
Daniel del Valle is building his universe from his home-studio in London. It's not a fashion brand, he insists - it's a garden. He calls it Thevxlley, pronounced "the valley," though the descriptor is more metaphor than a place. Everything seems to grow in this garden: bread, orchids, glass, ceramics, clothing that weighs more than small children. Some garments are not so much worn as carried like reliquaries.
