Early Life
Cooper was born in Jacksonville, Florida in 1998. He moved to Atlanta and later London at the age of 11, where most of his friends still resided. He then moved to Los Angeles to launch the label for the practical reason that the production facilities available were valued at a higher worth.
As a Londoner, Reese first became interested in fashion at the age of 14, browsing Tumblr for what he calls “very Gen Z” brands. He found out about a BAPE store in London back while he was just spending much time there. Cooper ended up getting an internship with their distribution office.
At 16, he learned an early production skill called pattern making. During the time, Reese met Charlie Giannetti, a designer friend, who at first hired him to model for his label. Charlie and Reese then moved to Los Angeles over a work-related trip.

Business And Career
In 2016, Cooper launched his fashion label with no formal training. He launched his own line in nineteen and it has since gained a cult following. His menswear collections are renowned. In 2019, he became one of the youngest-ever finalists for the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund. He debuted his first full collection at Paris Fashion Week. He also has created limited-edition collections for Barney’s and Mr. Porter.
Reese moved to LA and was initially encouraged by his friend, Charlie Gianetti. This allowed him to grasp an original voice. He was able to create waves within the DIY scene, starting his very own clothing line. Inspired from his cross-Atlantic background, Cooper merges elements of UK and LA streetwear in each collection to create a new chapter in an innovative story
Cooper has been designing seasonal collections. His FW19 menswear collection, Hitchhiking, is inspired by the make-or-break nature of being a youngster as well as California’s landscapes. His first womenswear collection called Big Sky was released this season, representing Cooper’s retelling of the big-city dreaming narrative.
Much of Cooper’s production is done in the Giannetti Factory, a pioneering garment manufacturer. In addition, his clothing brand is global in both what you can find at stores and where it’s made.
Now 23 years, Cooper’s line can be found in major retailers like Selfridges and SSENSE while his Against the Wind capsule drops at Barneys today – a prelude to his men’s collection.
