032c prides itself on coexisting as a magazine as well as a cult streetwear brand. What first began as a research manual snowballed into what can be considered a multitude of fashion mediums. The brand was created by Joerg Koch and his wife, Maria Koch, in the early 2000s. This duo introduces collections that align themselves with the same contemporary outlook that is present in the magazine. Artistry and technical aesthetics are offered with a modern twist at 032c, which utilizes premium cut and sew fabrics and unique overlays that emphasize their modern and elevated approach to apparel. Now considered a lifestyle brand, 032c has worked with well-known designers Helmut Lang, Raf Simmons, and Rei Kawakubo. The brand continues to grow at a face pace, as they have begun collaborating with a variety of brands, including Adidas, Stussy, and 1017 Alyx 9SM.
