About Mr Winston
The brand had a different approach to gain exposure, instead of paid advertisement, influencers and publicity. They used old school tactics such as their strong work ethic, sustainability and keeping up to date with today’s fashion trends. This led the brand's name to be spread by word of mouth, social growth and people being spotted sporting the company, especially in their iconic Mr Winston Puff Print Hoodies.
Established by a Melbourne, Australia based mother named Karen Davidson and her daughter Ella. Both Karen and Ella as a team had a vision to create the exact clothing items they wished to see and purchase online, but were unable to find what they were after. With further discussion between the two entrepreneurs, they decided to start their own business and made an idea into reality.
Both Karen and Ella shared very different skills, Ella’s committed approach and Karen’s background of design and manufacturing gave them the leap they needed to successfully release their first drop in February 2017.
You might be wondering, where did the brand name come from? The company was named after the Davidson family’s 14 year old golden retriever “Winston”.
What inspired the design of Mr Winston
Inspiration was taken from former Off-White and Louis Vuitton designer, Mr Virgil Abloh’s video campaign. The style of street art he presented had a ‘Feminine Twist’ Karen and Ella said, leading them to make the decision of making their brand for both Men and Women.
Overwhelmed but satisfied with the popularity of the brand, Mr Winston continues to search and discover new ideas to create a more astonishing and exciting future ahead for Mr Winston.
In December 2022 their first collaboration with the brand dropped with a Milan based illustrator Constanza Starrabba and as usual, it sold out within minutes. The Mr Winston x Constanza Starrabba Cherry Puff Hoodie, along with a matching t-shirt and a limited edition print called the “Ciliegie Rossie” or in English, “Red Cherries” featured in two different sizes within this collab.
The streetwear community is very excited to see what Karen and Ella bring to the table for Australian based brand Mr Winston in the future.
