Twelve Bar is a premium apparel brand being launched in New York, Tokyo and London this Spring. Interview with Twelve Bar by: Young Thawt -------------------------- What was the inspiration for the line and how did you get from an abstract idea to a tangible product? Twelve Bar is inspired by everything from music, art and film to fashion, sport and literature. The name “Twelve Bar” pays homage to the rhythm pattern which black music is derived from and acknowledges how influential it has been on the development of street culture. The people involved have grown up absorbing all these things in different corners of the globe and are now bringing their influences and passions together to develop a new creative vision. These passions are embodied in the graphical representation of the Twelve Bar brand which is based around an interpretation of a heart and symbolizes everything Twelve Bar represents.
