Public School Nyc

PUBLIC SCHOOL is a New York story. Designers Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne, born and raised in New York City, represent the convergence and restless energy of the city they live and work in. Founded in 2008, PUBLIC SCHOOL is redefining the landscape for menʼs tailored sportswear. Chow and Osborne blend high and low references from fashion, music and art to create a new look that is both masculine and precisely detailed. Chow and Osborne design and manufacture their full range of suitings, shirts, knits, denim and outerwear entirely in New York, incorporating fabric from the best Italian, Japanese and American mills. It is paramount to the Public School brand DNA that it keeps its production roots in New York, supporting local tailors, pattern makers and skilled garment workers. It is these genuine and personal experiences throughout the development process along with their design mantra “finding perfection in imperfection," that epitomize the brand and its commitment to produce only the finest quality garments. In 2010 PUBLIC SCHOOL was the sole emerging menswear brand chosen by the Council of Fashion Designers of America to be part of the inaugural {FASHION INCUBATOR} business development program. After focusing on moving one hundred percent of production to New York City, Chow and Osborne affirm the brandʼs ability to inject the attitude of their hometown into their designs. In June 2013, PUBLIC SCHOOL was honored with the prestigious CFDA Swarovski Award for Menswear. In November 2013, PUBLIC SCHOOL was named the winner of the prestigious 2013 CFDA VOGUE Fashion Fund Award. PUBLIC SCHOOL was one of ten finalists nominated for the award, it was their first nomination and win.
