Abstract: Features MOTY 2020 DESIGNER OF THE YEAR TELFAR CLEMENS, the 35-yearold Liberian American designer, has a simple tagline for his eponymous New York - based fashion brand: "Not for you - for everyone." That a bag at that cost became a status symbol is a testament to Clemens's masterful grasp of fashion seduction, an act most designers can pull off only with the help of thousand-dollar price tags. COMEBACK BRAND OF THE YEAR STÜSSY STÜSSY HAS HAD a banger 2020: The California skate brand dropped its second collection with Givenchy creative director Matthew Williams (using Loro Piana fabrics), a sellout collab of upcycled deadstock with the Our Legacy Work Shop, and one of the year's coolest suits, made with No Vacancy Inn. Even as he's done everything possible to keep his brand small and outside the greater fashion establishment, his clothes sell swiftly, in carefully selected stores all over the world.
