A bikini top made from beads that have been been unpicked from pre-loved garments and upcycled. The Nila Bikini is a one-of-one piece handmade by T LABEL.
Highly romantic and deeply stylised, T LABEL was founded by Taylor-Bea Gordon in 2020. Beyond studying at London College of Fashion, Gordon has worked for Alexander McQueen, Erdem, and Acne Studios.
There’s a tongue-in-cheek approach to Gorden’s ‘Romantic Wear’ - a style of design coined by the designer to describe her own work, citing it as a three-dimensional connection between clothing, nostalgia and an individual. The highly feminine pieces seem to almost poke fun at traditional nightwear and classic ideas of formal dress, reimagined for the modern wearer.
The pieces can be worn standalone, as sets, or introduced as a layering piece within any wardrobe to add a touch of romanticism.
