Benjamin Barron ’15 Interviewed in W Magazine
L-R: Benjamin Barron ’15 and Bror August Vestbø, creators of All-in.
Bard alumnus Benjamin Barron ’15 was interviewed in W Magazine about All-in, the fashion brand he founded with Bror August Vestbø. All-in is a design studio, magazine, and women’s brand influenced by vintage fashion. “We’re always looking for things that attract us and that we find a bit challenging in some way,” Barron said of the label.
All-In started as a magazine, which Barron and Vestbø continue to publish. Past issues explored themes like fast fashion and the decline of print magazines, and feature photoshoots with mostly thrifted clothes styled by the designers. Their own collections, which are released once a year, are each based on a storyline featuring a female character. For example, their 2023 line was based on a fictional pop star and was inspired by the film Showgirls. “Growth is happening … organically, driven by a fan base of insiders who recognize and prize originality,” writes Alice Cavanaugh for W Magazine.
