Hockey Player AU! Kyle "Gaz" Garrick Headcanons

...

Superstar. Forward. Drafted first overall. Alt captain. Left wing.

Raised in the UK but was soon recognized for his potential. A US family took him in to play in the states where he would have better opportunities. Trained at all the top notch facilities though high school with the best of the best. Drafted right out of high school and went straight into the NHL on a truly wild contract.

Top line, but put him with anyone and he'll make something happen. 50+ goal scorer, plus sooo many assists. Always in the right place at the right time. Guy you don't want to see four on four / three on three, he's dangerous on open ice.  

Wheel, snipe, celly. Crazy aim, bar down all day everyday. Moderately flashy but honestly he can't help it, he's got HANDS; can stick handle in a phone booth. Seriously the compilation videos look like they should be from chel not real life. 

Still responsible defensively, he's not going to leave his guys hanging. Soap's a defenseman and they work super well together. Soap will put it on net from the blue line and Gaz will grab the rebound and put it in, he doesn't care how good the goalie's rebound control is. 

Always has a fun celly ready for the crowd! Amazing sportsmanship (aside from the chirps). Clean player, no cheapshots here. He always apologizes for bad hits or accidents. Well known in the league for just being a great guy behind closed doors too.

Could be a contender for literally any award he's eligible for. MVP, points, sportsmanship, community activism, you name it. 

The Only charismatic hockey player. Does lots of interviews, is active on personal social media, has his own brand of activewear. Started a program to make hockey more accessible to underserved youth in his city.

Kills at chel. He was the cover last season!

Thigh. That's it that's the tweet. Insane thigh muscles. Wears short shorts around pregame so the social media people can get some good photos. And we all go nuts over it on twitter.

Mic'd up status: absolutely has and does want to be mic'd up, always gassing up his teammates, throws devastating chirps with Soap. They have to beep most of Soap's though because they're too explicit.

Hockey hair status: Sure it looks nice short but where's the flow!!! Natural?? Locs??? Please consider. Facial hair during the playoffs... the beard isn't up to par but the mustache is fine.

Roster pic status: smiling, manages to look hot where everyone else on the team looks like shit

WAG status: His girlfriend is hot and basically queen of the WAGs. Always in their box during games with the other girls having a fun time. They look sooo good together it's not even funny. Hosts parties at their house for the team. Their couples halloween costumes are the best!!

She's also a community activist and dropped the puck at one of their home games. Gaz, of course, took the face off. And then got down on one knee to propose to her. Obviously she said yes and the video went viral instantly.

....

I do NOT consent for my works, part of my works, or my ideas to be used for ANY form of AI.

More hockey au: Ghost | Soap | Price

Note: "Chel" is an abbreviation of NHL referring to the video game. WAG stands for wife and girlfriend or the plural, used to refer to sports guy's significant others. Yes it is heteronormative.

The WAG part is absolutely welcome to be interpreted as self insert :D

For the Hell of it 3 - Definitely Just Friends

Character: Jason Todd x civilian! Fem!oc

Rating and Warnings: G, no warnings

Word Count: 1,219

Summary: She and Jason take her dog for a walk and talk about how they're definitely not going to get into a relationship, nu-uh.

Masterlist

-------

The third time was on purpose. So were the fourth, and fifth. 

Jason had been messaging Andy for the last month, more than he had ever texted anyone outside of the vigilante scene since coming back from the dead.

Sometimes he met her at the college library when she had essays to write and he had case work that could be done in public and neither one wanted to be stuck at home. He made annoying orders at the cafe she worked at on weekends, and she made him terrible coffee in return. Conversation drifted from their shared tastes in books, to food, to travel, to whatever came into their heads.

It was all going well until a fear took root in Jason. 

He had no business getting into a relationship. For so many reasons. Gotham was its usual unhinged and dangerous self, and the Red Hood played a vital part in its defense. It would be irresponsible to go dragging some innocent into this life. He couldn’t. He was self aware enough to know vigilantism had made him a paranoid mess, and he wasn’t going to make that anyone else’s problem. And he’d seen how the others started taking only safe bets when they had someone to come home to. He wasn’t going to start playing it safe now, not with so many people counting on him. 

Not that he and Andy were dating. But it made him nervous when he found himself flirting, or laughing with her just a little too hard. Thinking about her in idle moments on patrol. Idle moments.. Not on patrol. 

Andy was fun. She was beautiful and thoughtful and she didn’t see a ghost when she looked at him.

He couldn’t string her along. It wasn’t fair. 

Unless of course she didn’t even want him, in which case he was making a damn fool of himself for nothing. 

They were meeting up at the dog park at Too Fucking Early o’clock. She was more fond of mornings than him. Her dog Marlow needed a walk, and they were going to stroll down to the good taco truck for lunch. That wasn’t too intimate. It was lunch, anyone could get lunch.

He got there first, wearing dark glasses and squinting resentfully at the bright winter sun that was cutting through the usual diffusing layer of smog. He casually surveyed the others walking around. Crime Alley looked better by day. He didn’t even spot many hidden weapons. There were some young kids squealing on the grass, and a few people jogging in pairs. A fair few people in different uniforms smoked under shop awnings and there was a line for the coffee truck. Poison Ivy had done some light vandalism on the park a year ago but they had it in hand now and nobody had been eaten by the bushes in months. It was downright pleasant. 

“Marlow!” Andy’s voice called. 

Jason turned and was immediately confronted with soulful black eyes in a large grey snout staring intently at him. The wiry haired dog the snout was attached to came up to Jason’s hip. His mouth split into a wide smile and he presented a hand for him to sniff. Marlow inspected his offering thoroughly. Then he presented his head for pats, bumping his face at Jason's hand.

“Who’s a good boy, hm?” Jason crouched down to rub his sides. “Ready for your walk? No, no licking my face, come on.”

“If the face isn’t for licking, why is it within licking range? Checkmate, human,” Andy said. 

Jason smiled up at her. She was dressed in activewear, red and black tights hugging her shapely legs and hips before they were hidden beneath a thick grey hoodie. Her hair was up in a high bun. She grinned back at him, as blinding as the sunlight. 

He swallowed and looked back at Marlow. He got his face licked. She laughed at him. 

He made a face and stood up. “I had no idea he was so big. Irish wolfhound, huh?”

“Yeah. I didn’t know what he was when I found him as a puppy.” They started walking together along the dirt paths. “My friend who was totally going to get into vet school any day now said he was an Irish terrier.”

Jason snorted. 

“How are things with you?” 

“Alright. Work’s keeping me busy and Mrs Nikolaou on seventh street gave me a half sheet tray of Moussaka the other day,” he said. He had told her he was a contractor in private security, which in Gotham wasn’t necessarily a criminal activity, it did not invite follow-up questions. It was easier than maintaining an elaborate string of lies, and unlike Bruce he couldn’t get away with telling everyone he got hurt playing polo. 

Andy’s eyebrows spiked. “A half-? What is it with little old ladies adopting you? Where’s my moussaka, is what I’d like to know.” 

“I guess you’re just not as cute as me.” 

“Impossible. I’m fucking adorable.” 

He opened his mouth to agree, and then thought better of it. “Marlow’s about to eat duck poo.”

“Marlow!”

They reached the taco truck, which had a line in front of it to his disappointment. It never had a line at 2AM. It smelled amazing though, and they lined up eagerly. Marlow whined very convincingly but he’d already had his lunch. 

They got their orders and sat on a low stone wall to eat. 

Strands of Andy’s hair had come loose in the wind, and were at risk of getting stuck in her taco. She kept whipping her hair to try and flick it away, since both her hands were dripping salsa. Jason reached over to brush the hair from her face. She looked up at him and blushed. He tucked the hair behind her ear and grinned at her flustered look. She elbowed him in the stomach and stole one of his corn chips. 

Then he got skittish and dedicated his attention back to his lunch. Marlow curled up at their feet, keeping a wary eye on passersby. Andy finished hers first and scrubbed at her hands with a napkin. 

She cleared her throat. “Hey.”

“What?”

A silence stretched between them. He glanced at her warily. 

“I don’t want to make things weird, but, uh. I’ve been meaning to say.” She stared at her hands in her lap. “I’m not looking for anything romantic at the moment. If that was what you were looking for. It’s not that I don’t like you, I just had a bad break up a while ago and I can’t- I’m not- um.”

Relief and crushing disappointment filled him. He chose to lean into the relief.

“I’m not looking for anything more either,” he said and bumped her shoulder.

She let out a breath of relief and looked up at him. “We can be friends, right?”

“Yeah.” He ran his hands through his hair and coughed a laugh. “I was actually trying to figure out how to ask you the same.”

“Yeah? Bad break up too?”

“Na. Just… not in the right place for it.”

Her shoulders relaxed and he did too. The distance he had been trying to maintain between them fell away. It was safe to get close to her now, because he knew it wasn’t going to lead to anything.

Wilmer Valderrama, the 44-year-old actor best known for roles such as Fez in the sitcom “That ‘70s Show” and Special Agent Nicholas Torres on the drama series “NCIS,” has immersed himself into the activewear business.

The actor, entrepreneur, activist and fitness enthusiast has introduced a new active lifestyle brand for women and men called E.P.U., which stands for E Pluribus Unum, which is Latin for “out of many, one.”

“I Iove the fashion industry and it’s something that I really have been paying attention to, and have been so fascinated by the people who create fashion,” Valderrama said in a telephone interview Friday.

The collection features unisex T-shirts, tanks, crew neck sweaters, sweatpants and sweatshirts, along with men’s and women’s hoodies and joggers and women’s crop T-shirts and tanks.

Sizes range from XS to 2XL, with prices going from $25 to $75. The garments are crafted from 100 percent French terry cotton. The socks, duffel, unisex T-shirt, unisex, tanks, and women’s crop T-shirt are all made in the U.S., while the rest is made in Vietnam and India.

E.P.U. has forged a direct partnership with the USO (United Service Organizations) with a portion of sales benefiting their mission of strengthening the well-being of service members and their families. Valderrama, who is a global ambassador for USO, has been on more than 45 USO tours around the world and his time with the troops inspired him to give back to the men and women who serve to protect the country — and the people they leave at home.

Valderrama said he’s no stranger to the fashion industry. About 10 years ago he was involved in a casual brand for two years called Calavena, which sold in stores such as Saks, Kitson and Barneys. The brand no longer exists.

This time he decided to get into active sportswear for several reasons. First, he realized early on in his career that fitness was something that “not only helped the mental strengthening of the ups and downs of the industry,” but allowed him to look ahead to what roles I wanted to play next. “From Fez and having to transform into a person who could play a cop, it’s part of the transforming process,” he said.

In that journey, he created the hashtag #MyHouraDay, where he would do something active and share it on social media. His followers around the globe started giving their own answers such as “Going for a run,” or “Going for a Swim.”

Further, Valderrama has been inspired by athletes such as cross trainer Mat Fraser and snowboarder and skateboarder Shaun White, who are friends of his. “We’re always talking about mental strengthening, and when you’re out there trying to be number one, what is that mentality?” Valderrama said.

As a global ambassador to USO, Valderrama will bring friends along, talk to the troops and design and host big stage performances with comedians, musicians and DJs. “I’ve been to almost every base around the world. I’ve been to Iraq, Afghanistan, [South] Korea, Germany, Lithuania, you name it, I’ve been at that base,” he said. He began realizing the commonality of the military and what he loves so much.

“Part of their every day is how much they prioritize fitness. Fitness was an extension of their daily routines,” he said. He said he made it part of what he does professionally. “My workouts weren’t negotiable, they weren’t hobbies. [At] 4:30 in the morning, I get up and I’m going to the gym, and then I go to work. It’s part of my workflow. That mentality started creating this mental strengthening that I was not expecting. I always had the bug to go back to fashion. And all of a sudden, I was like, ‘What if?’”

He believed that he could take everything he learned from traveling the world with the military, and the inspiration from his athlete friends to create a brand that infused that kind of community for mental strengthening. Inspired by retro fashion from the 1950s and 1960s and Double RL hoodies and sweatpants, he felt he could create a brand that looked cool and functioned well. They designed the looks to be worn to the gym for a boxing workout or cross-fit training, as well as great travel outfits and clothes that can slip off easily for the pool.

Since today’s generation likes to discover brands on their own, he is selling E.P.U. through an online store, epuhq.com, as well as Instagram and Facebook.

One of his main objectives is to build a community. By donating part of the proceeds to USO, he’d like to be part of building USO Centers around the world and creating programs for veterans and their families. He pointed out that USO is a nonprofit and not government-supported, so it relies on donations.

“This is very much a passion project of mine, and I want to be as bold as possible in supporting these programs. And then the big thing is we build mental strengthening facilities,” he said.

Valderrama, who owns his Los Angeles-based company 100 percent, said he’d eventually like to launch accessories, socks, gloves to work out in, shoes, water-resistant products, weighted-vests and his own equipment.

Asked how he finds the time to run this business, while pursuing an acting career, he said, “There’s always time. If you have something in front of you that’s a priority, the schedule somehow molds into a place that you also have time for it. I have literally daily calls on this. We have photo shoots.…We have tons of community-building content around this,” he said.

“It’s a big undertaking, when they say cut, I start making calls,” Valderrama said. So far, he’s working with eight or nine full-time people in digital, social media and distribution.

Valderrama declined to divulge how much volume he anticipates he’ll do in the first year. “We’re hoping that we sell out very quickly and go right into the next phase. The internal testing that we’ve done has been received incredibly. People love how simple it is,” he said. He anticipates the tracksuits will be a bestseller.

The collection’s color palette is the official colors of the different branches of the military such as red and yellow for the U.S. Marines, green for the U.S. Army and blue for the U.S. Air Force.

Valderamma said he never got a chance to serve in any of these military branches since he got his first big break in TV when he was 18 years old.

He recalled that he became interested in USO years ago when he was walking through an airport and two members of the military came up to him and asked to speak to him. They said that after a long day of doing what they do, they trade “That ‘70s Show” DVDs like they’re baseball cards. “’And we laugh. It really helps and thank you,’” they told him. Valderrama immediately called his agent and said he’d like to show up at their bases. “In two seconds, they sent me out on a USO tour,” he said.

For the collection, he worked with “a design guru who helped scramble what was in his head,” and his fiancée, Amanda Pacheco, who was their fit model and gave suggestions on the women’s fit. To promote the brand, he plans community workouts to show who’s supporting the brand and what the brand is physically doing in real time.

Valderrama was born in Miami but grew up in Venezuela until the age of 13 or 14, when his family moved back to the U.S. and settled in Los Angeles. His father is Venezuelan and his mother is Colombian.

Next week, he will start taping the 22nd season of “NCIS,” which averages 6.5 million to 7 million viewers live every Monday night on Paramount+ and has about 12 million to 13 million viewers overall every week, he said. Valderrama’s next project is a “Zorro” adaptation for Disney, which is in development and he stars and serves as executive producer.

The actor has also written his first book, a memoir entitled “An American Story: Everyone’s Invited,” (HarperCollins) which will be published Sept. 17. “The memoir is a tribute to my family by bringing me to the U.S., and showing me the road and allowing me to walk it. I was able to take the American dream and make it something that belonged to my life,” he said. When he came to the U.S. at around 14 years old, he didn’t know how to speak English. “And by the age of 18, I’m booking ‘That ‘70s Show.'”

The U.S. Apparel Market: Trends, Growth, and Key Insights

The U.S. apparel market is one of the largest and most dynamic sectors in the global fashion industry. Valued at over $368 billion in 2022, this market continues to grow, driven by evolving consumer preferences, technological advancements, and an increasing focus on sustainability. This article delves into the key factors shaping the U.S. apparel market, from changing fashion trends to the rise of e-commerce.

1. Market Overview

The U.S. apparel industry is characterized by a diverse range of products, from everyday wear and activewear to luxury brands. Major players in the market include multinational retailers like Nike, Adidas, and Under Armour, as well as fast fashion giants such as H&M and Zara. In recent years, there has been a shift towards more casual, comfortable clothing as remote work and hybrid work models became the norm during and after the pandemic.

2. E-Commerce: The Game Changer

One of the most significant trends in the U.S. apparel market is the rise of online shopping. E-commerce sales now account for more than 30% of all apparel purchases in the U.S. Consumers are increasingly turning to online platforms for convenience, a wider selection of products, and personalized shopping experiences.

Brands are leveraging technology to offer enhanced customer experiences online. Virtual fitting rooms, AI-driven recommendations, and augmented reality (AR) tools have transformed how consumers interact with apparel brands. Retailers who have adopted these technologies have seen increased engagement and conversion rates.

3. Sustainability and Ethical Fashion

Sustainability has become a critical focus for both consumers and companies in the U.S. apparel market. As awareness of environmental issues grows, shoppers are demanding more eco-friendly and ethically produced clothing. This has led to a surge in demand for sustainable fabrics, second-hand clothing, and brands committed to reducing their carbon footprint.

Some companies are integrating sustainability into their business models by adopting circular fashion practices, which involve recycling and reusing materials. Brands such as Patagonia and Everlane are well-known for their commitment to ethical production and transparency in their supply chains, gaining popularity among eco-conscious consumers.

4. Athleisure: The Casual Revolution

The athleisure trend, which blurs the line between athletic wear and casual fashion, continues to dominate the U.S. market. What started as a niche category has now become mainstream, with consumers favoring versatile clothing that offers both comfort and style. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated this shift, as people sought comfortable clothing for working from home and exercising outdoors.

Brands like Lululemon, Nike, and Adidas have capitalized on this trend, introducing collections that combine performance and fashion. The popularity of athleisure is expected to remain strong, particularly as consumers prioritize health, wellness, and comfort.

5. Fast Fashion vs. Slow Fashion

Fast fashion, which emphasizes low-cost, trendy clothing, remains a significant part of the U.S. apparel market. Retailers like Forever 21, Shein, and Fashion Nova are known for quickly bringing runway-inspired designs to consumers at affordable prices. However, fast fashion faces increasing criticism for its environmental impact and labor practices.

In response, the slow fashion movement is gaining momentum. Slow fashion promotes quality over quantity, encouraging consumers to invest in timeless, durable pieces rather than frequently buying disposable clothing. This shift reflects a broader change in consumer behavior, where shoppers are becoming more mindful of the impact their purchases have on the environment and society.

6. Luxury Fashion: Resilience Amid Challenges

Despite economic uncertainties, the luxury apparel segment in the U.S. has shown resilience. High-end brands like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Chanel continue to see strong demand, particularly among younger, affluent consumers. The rise of luxury resale platforms, such as The RealReal and Vestiaire Collective, has also boosted this segment, as consumers increasingly view second-hand luxury as a sustainable and cost-effective way to shop.

Moreover, digital innovation in the luxury sector has opened new avenues for growth. Virtual fashion shows, direct-to-consumer sales, and exclusive online collections have allowed luxury brands to maintain their allure while adapting to the digital age.

7. Consumer Behavior: The Rise of Personalization

Personalization is becoming a crucial factor in the success of apparel brands in the U.S. market. Consumers now expect brands to cater to their individual tastes and preferences. From personalized shopping recommendations to custom clothing options, brands are using data-driven insights to offer tailored experiences. This shift is particularly evident in the growth of direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands, which can offer unique, personalized products and build stronger relationships with their customers.

8. Challenges in the U.S. Apparel Market

While the U.S. apparel market presents many opportunities, it also faces significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions, rising production costs, and inflation have impacted both manufacturers and retailers. Additionally, the shift towards sustainability, while necessary, requires significant investment in new materials, production processes, and technologies.

Moreover, the highly competitive nature of the market means that brands must continuously innovate to stand out. With consumers having more choices than ever, maintaining brand loyalty is an ongoing challenge.

9. Future Outlook

The U.S. apparel market is poised for continued growth, driven by the increasing role of technology, sustainability, and changing consumer preferences. Brands that can successfully adapt to these trends, while offering personalized and eco-friendly products, are likely to thrive in this competitive landscape.

In today’s world, women empowerment has become a powerful movement that touches every part of our lives — from the workplace to the gym. When we think of empowerment, it’s not just about strength in the traditional sense; it’s about confidence, comfort, and being your authentic self in every situation. This is where Yoginis Activewear comes in.

Yoginis Activewear is much more than just a brand of workout clothes; it’s a statement of empowerment for women who want to feel confident, comfortable, and stylish during their workouts and beyond.

Activewear That Empowers

The brand believes that empowerment starts from within, and what you wear can have a direct impact on how you feel. By creating activewear that is both comfortable and trendy, Yoginis encourages women to embrace their bodies and feel powerful in their skin, whether they’re lifting weights, doing yoga, or running errands.

Empowerment isn’t just about what you achieve physically — it’s about how you carry yourself, how you feel, and the confidence that comes with being comfortable in your clothes.

Comfort Meets Style

Yoginis Activewear designs clothing that works with a woman’s body. The fabrics are breathable, stretchable, and designed for all body types. Whether you’re doing a high-intensity workout or just lounging around, their pieces are made to move with you.

From petite to plus-size, Yoginis Activewear offers something for everyone. The brand encourages women to love their bodies, no matter where they are in their fitness journey.

Through their commitment to inclusivity, Yoginis sends a strong message: every woman is powerful, and every woman deserves to feel confident in her own skin.

Sustainable Fashion, Mindful Choices

Empowerment also comes from making responsible choices, and Yoginis Activewear is committed to sustainability. In a world where fast fashion can harm the environment, Yoginis takes a mindful approach by using eco-friendly materials and ethical production methods.

This empowers women to not only look and feel good but also to make a positive impact on the planet. Knowing that your activewear comes from a brand that values sustainability adds another layer of empowerment — it’s about making choices that align with your values.

The Power of a Community

Yoginis Activewear isn’t just about clothes — it’s about creating a community of empowered women who support and uplift each other. Whether through social media or fitness events, the brand encourages women to connect, share their fitness journeys, and inspire one another.

When women support women, everyone wins. This sense of community fosters empowerment beyond the individual, helping to create a collective movement where women feel strong, motivated, and unstoppable.

The Bottom Line

From Fashion to Fitness: How Ashley Rossi, Amaury Guichon’s Wife-to-Be, Is Redefining Activewear

Ashley Rossi, often recognized as Amaury Guichon’s girlfriend and wife-to-be, is making a significant impact in the world of fashion and fitness. While many are familiar with her relationship with the renowned pastry chef, Ashley has built a thriving career as an entrepreneur and fashion designer. She is the founder of VShred Threads, an innovative activewear brand that is redefining how women approach fitness, fashion, and wellness.

Though her relationship with Amaury Guichon has brought her into the spotlight, Ashley’s own achievements in the business world are what truly set her apart. As she continues to shape the future of activewear, Ashley Rossi is proving that she is a force to be reckoned with.

A Journey Rooted in Fashion and Entrepreneurship

Ashley Rossi’s entrepreneurial spirit was sparked at a young age. Raised in Scranton, Pennsylvania, in an Italian family deeply involved in the restaurant business, she grew up learning the value of hard work and dedication. Her family owned and operated Rossi’s Ristorante, where Ashley spent her childhood surrounded by creativity and business strategy, helping to fuel her ambitions for entrepreneurship.

Her love for fashion began early, leading her to design clothes even before she went to college. With a background in art, business, and fashion, she merged these disciplines to create a unique perspective on the fashion industry. Before launching her own brand, Ashley designed for multiple clothing lines, gaining invaluable experience that would later influence her work in activewear.

Founding VShred Threads: Where Fashion Meets Fitness

While Ashley’s love for fashion was clear, her passion for fitness also played a central role in her career. She was an award-winning athlete, breaking records in soccer and track and field during her younger years. This athletic background gave her a unique insight into what active women need when it comes to workout clothing. She realized that women’s activewear needed to be more than just stylish; it had to be functional, durable, and empowering.

Ryan Bartlett: Bringing Back Comfortability, Touch of Modern Classics, and Affordability in Men’s Fashion at True Classic

Fashion has been around for a very long time now. It is an identity, a form of expression, communication, and can also boost one’s self-esteem and confidence. Over the years when focusing on the men’s fashion category, we see that the style of clothes has transitioned from a more formal, stiff, and uniform-like to a more comfortable, casual, and timeless style of wear. 

Out with the tiring stereotypical fashion style for men and bringing in fresh perspectives with more boldness, comfortable basics, simplicity, and definition, men for years have demanded clothes designed to make them feel comfortable yet empowering, like a second skin. Retaining the smart and classy look, the preference in men’s fashion and style nowadays is a more laid-back, simple, uncomplicated, classic, modern, and casual-looking style.

Despite the ever-changing fashion and apparel industry in line with the evolving consumer trends and preferences, giving men clothes that they have always wanted is what the founders of True Classic are all about. Ryan Bartlett the Co-founder and CEO of the retail and fashion apparel brand – True Classic, prioritizes men’s wants and needs and envisions an affordable men’s fashion line by designing and producing clothes that not only look good but also feel good. Therefore in this article, we will be sharing interesting insights by delving into the world of fashion, where we shall learn how Co-founder Ryan Bartlett brings back comfortability and affordability whilst combining a timeless traditional touch with modernity to men’s fashion and style today.

Breaking Stereotypes and Envisioning Simplicity in Modernity:

While wanting to retain functionality and aesthetics, Ryan Bartlett had a eureka moment when the idea of combining simplicity in modernity with a timeless traditional touch, dawned on him. In 2018, Ryan wanted to take his passion for men’s clothing and fashion and craft a brand out of it. This was the conceptual moment when the inspiration behind True Classic’s T-shirts was introduced. Ryna who is also the brand’s Chief Executive Officer set out on his journey of “helping the everyday guy look good and feel good in a t-shirt that finally fits right at an accessible price.” Therefore in 2019, Ryan joined hands and partnered up with co-founders – Nick Ventura and Matthew Winnick who shared the same vision and drive for comfortable elegance in elevating the men’s fashion category, and launched True Classic’s first-ever Crew Neck T-shirts in six colors. 

The Road Ahead and Business Expansions:

Established in Los Angeles, California, USA, True Classic skyrockets in sales making their first-ever 100 million dollar mark during 2020 – 2021. With embracing increasing momentum in sales, happy and satisfied customers, and a mission-driven employee workforce, True Classic brings out its joint creativity and uniqueness and applies it to serious business strategies to rise above its competitors in the market. Making their classic menswear clothing line affordable, the t-shirts at True Classic are also made soft, durable, comfortable, fit in all the right places, and are just what the men look for and need. In 2022, True Classic will go global in over 192 countries. The next thing on the minds of all three co-founders was a major impactful and much-needed business expansion. Therefore by introducing newer categories into the brand from featuring activewear to men’s bottoms, True Classic started garnering more attention to its brand and clothing line from even more countries across the globe. Empowering men, the brand continued head-on and opened doors to over five retail stores and later two more were added, all across the United States of America. True Classic’s 2023 vision saw itself expanding soon to include women’s essential wardrobe pieces as well as the strategic business adoption of more ‘giving back to the community’ initiatives. 

True Classic’s Charitable and Philanthropic Efforts:

With Ryan’s family coming from a military background, the co-founder and CEO is all too familiar with homeless veterans who are left behind to face the harsh world after literally serving their country with their lives. Realizing this, Ryan and his True Classic co-founders, partnered with the Tiny House Project as a start to raise awareness of the rapidly increasing homeless-veterans issues. To address this with a personal and professional passion, True Classic donates its clothes to veteran communities, homeless shelters, schools, and other local communities in need. Ryan says, “Value can come in the form of best-in-class customer service, entertaining ads that make you laugh, products that are intentionally designed to help you look better, and donating shirts at a scale to help communities in need.” Nick Ventura, the co-founder is happy to say that “….we have made good on that promise and giving back to our community is a pillar of our everyday mission.”, while Matthew Winnick adds that “I’m proud of our work with several organizations that get much-needed clothing in the hands of homeless veterans. As we scale and our donation increase, it is very rewarding to see True Classic’s social impact.”

The Basics of Fashion Sketching

The world of fashion design begins with a sketch – a visual translation of an idea onto paper. Whether you're a budding designer or simply want to explore your creative side, mastering the basics of fashion sketching is an invaluable skill. Let's dive into the essential elements that will get you sketching stylish figures in no time!

Building the Foundation: Croquis Construction

The foundation of every great fashion sketch is a well-proportioned croquis (pronounced "kroh-kee"). This is a basic outline of the human figure that serves as a blank canvas for your designs. Here's how to build a simple croquis:

Draw nine ovals: Imagine the human body segmented into nine equal ovals, stacked vertically. These ovals represent the head, torso, hips, and legs.

Connect the ovals with lines: Use light lines to connect the ovals, creating a basic outline of the figure.

Refine the proportions: Pay attention to the natural proportions of the human body. The head should be about one-eighth the total height of the figure, and the hips should be slightly wider than the shoulders.

Add details: Sketch in basic facial features (optional for some croquis styles) and refine the lines of the arms and legs.

Posture Perfect: Posing Your Croquis

A well-posed croquis adds life and dynamism to your fashion sketch. Experiment with different poses to showcase your garment designs from various angles. Here are some basic poses to get you started:

Standing Pose: This is a classic and versatile pose, ideal for showcasing full-length garments.

Hip Pose: This pose has the figure slightly turned, with one hip jutting out. It's great for emphasizing details like pockets or draping.

Walking Pose: This pose adds a sense of movement and is perfect for showcasing activewear or flowing garments.

Dressing the Croquis: Adding Your Designs

Now comes the fun part – dressing your croquis! Here's how to translate your design ideas onto your sketch:

Start with light lines: Begin by sketching the basic silhouette of your garment on the croquis. Use light and confident strokes, leaving room for adjustments.

Layer by layer: If your design has multiple layers, like a jacket over a dress, sketch each layer on top of the previous one.

Details matter: Add details like buttons, collars, pockets, and pleats to bring your garment to life. Use short, light strokes for these details.

Shading and Texture: Once you're happy with the outline, use shading techniques to add depth and dimension to your sketch. Experiment with different pencil pressures to create textures like fur, leather, or flowing fabrics.
