Innovative Aotearoa designer Jason Lingard’s labels have hit the shelves at The Tannery boutique Cosi Fan Tutte.

Jason's eponymous label is dark and bold, paying homage to Japanese and neo-Gothic aesthetics with a decidedly modern bent. He has a deep appreciation for high-end finishings and loves working with quality, natural materials such as linen, leather, silk, wool and fine cottons.

His second label, Gaard, strikes further in the direction of streetwear, with printed hoodies, tees and multipurpose garments. The Gaard range was born from an Asia New Zealand Foundation trip where Jason and other ethically-minded Kiwi fashion designers travelled to Asia to explore family-run factories and meet with local designers.

The collections are both designed to fit interchangeable body shapes, genders and ages.
