Meet the team behind SC103, New York's latest indie fashion darling

Sophie Andes-Gascon and Claire McKinney weren’t close friends when they started living together five years ago. Each admired the other’s work from afar—Andes-Gascon appreciated McKinney’s keen eye for visual presentation; Sophie fell in love with a pair of pleated denim pants that Claire had designed. Upon graduating the two moved in together, and soon after began collaborating, first creating one-off pieces for brands like Maryam Nassir Zadeh, then, in September 2019, debuting their own label SC103. Photographer and filmmaker Emmanuel Olunkwa spent one day in late September with the designers ahead of their first runway show, discussing the collaboration and their collection debut.
