Inspiration

“War of the Roses” draws inspiration from contrast—beauty and conflict, elegance and tension. Symbolically referencing the Wars of the Roses, the design explores themes of duality, power, and balance.

Roses, often associated with beauty and growth, are juxtaposed with the idea of struggle and competition—reflecting how strength and refinement can coexist. This duality is translated into the garment through both its visual elements and its balance of classic and contemporary design.

Through this piece, Brooklyn Republic creates more than just a layering item—it delivers a narrative. The “War of the Roses” vest is for those who appreciate depth in design, where style carries meaning and every detail tells a story.
