When it came to conceiving the idea that became Temple, it felt almost natural to me. I wanted to create a community of people who liked themselves enough to dress solely for themselves. While dressing for themselves they’re spreading the message that it’s not always about “what is in” but what you personally like and what becomes your “temple”. When you’re in a temple you feel at peace, centered, confident and a little bit awestruck at the surrounding serenity that becomes you. When you wear Temple these same feelings should manifest and translate. Now, Rome wasn’t built in a day but brick by brick it came to fruition. My prayer is that in due time the cultivation of a community with a similar knack for these ideals, that also go deeper than the presented surface will be a driving force and example of what “Temple” really is. It’s about you, it’s about we, it’s about us.
