Two years late

I would like to apologize in advance for sharing images of clothing no longer available for purchase, from a duo no longer together(although still making lovely things separately). I am talking about Mooka Kinney.





They tell it this way: Rachel Antonoff and Alison Lewis (twenty-four and twenty-three respectively) met fatefully when Alison rented a room in Rachel's west village apartment. Although they now live separately in the w. village, it was in the cozy apartment on West 12th Street that they discovered a shared love for haunting local vintage stores and the empire-waisted, whimsical wardrobes of their childhoods. Inspired by winged ponies, peter pan and other such fantastical things, the girls set to work on their debut collection of dresses, all of which would be fit for a party in a tree-house.











I want one of each garment, especially the Maximillian dress(third to last). I'm cooing and awing but mostly sighing because I won't be able to get any of these babies.

All photos belong to Mooka Kinney
