Moog Royale
May 14th, 2009
Moog Royale is a limited edition graphic clothes label created by Mark Etherington and Si Hollington in 2008.
Moog Royale are a pair of conjoined twins born at different times in different countries. The left-hand-twin is called Mark: 33-years-old, born in Switzerland for some reason,
has been a designer for over a decade, lives in Kent and is the same height as a small horse or a large dog. The
right-hand-twin is called Si: Born in England, is three years younger, has been a designer for nearly a decade,
lives in Kent and is the same height as an average horse or a MK 56 Guided Missile…
Moog Royale’s foundations are two friends wanting their clothes to be better designed and better made. In the words of Si, “We wanted to design tees that we’d want to wear. We got such good feedback that we’re now designing them for you. We’re also very proud of the fact that where possible we ensure our clothes are carbon neutral and sweatshop free and we make sure all our designs are printed here in the UK.”
In a world where fashion follows distinct trends, Moog Royale offers a refreshing antidote; clean, unique and bold graphic threads. Mark adds, “Everybody wants what no one else has, that’s why Moog Royale won’t be found in loads of high street shops, we’re very selective aboutwhere Moog Royale is stocked. We don’t mass produce, every design is a limited run, some more limited than others.”
