23/24, Clinton Hill
She’s 23; he’s 24. She was born in Brooklyn and raised in Chicago; he’s from New Jersey. They both moved to Brooklyn to attend Pratt, where they met and began collaborating on fashion, first as twentyten and most recently as Alder Boutique. Out of a studio in the Navy Yard, they design striking but simple clothing as well as accessories frequently based on found objects—window locks, door chains, and various clips and rings. “Alder is doing well for the holidays,” Nina told us. “We have a bunch of cool digital print scarves, hats, jewelry, and bags that people seem to be enjoying quite a bit.”
