Our Story
A Vision in Progress, is a fashion brand that aims to stand out by celebrating individuality and building a supportive community. We believe in creating unique, bold clothing that lets people express who they truly are while creating a space to motivate or reignite passion for creativity.
How It Began
Our journey began when our founder [Ricky] felt lost after graduation and working in jobs that didn't value people. This experience inspired the creation of AVIP, a brand where everyone is appreciated and creativity can thrive.
Without a background in fashion, Ricky learnt all he could from YouTube, books and other online. Although the journey was difficult, the passion to make a change and leave an impact is still the drive for him, as well as being able to express his creative freedom through design.
Our Mission
Our mission at AVIP is to help people express their true selves through unique fashion, music & other creative medias. We believe in growing continuously, both as individuals and as a community, to make a positive impact on the world.
What Makes Us Unique
Unique Designs: Our clothes are bold and different. We love asymmetrical designs that challenge traditional ideas of beauty and encourage people to embrace their differences.
Community Building: AVIP is more than just a brand; it's a community. We bring people together through events and our Artist Support Group podcast, where creatives can share their stories and support each other.
Who We Are For
AVIP is for anyone who values growth and is not afraid of change. Taking step into the dark is always scary, but the willingness to overcome that fear is how we grow. Our community is for people who aren't afraid to stand out and who appreciate the deeper meaning behind what they wear, what they do and what they envision.
What We Believe In
- Creativity and Individuality: Fashion should let you be yourself. Our designs will highlight you in a crowded room. Be ready for the eyes of many.
- Growth & Support: The core principle of our brand and community is growth. The irony of of creatives is that we strive for perfection but perfection is not achievable. Some see this as a negative, at AVIP, we see this as a constant opportunity for growth.
The AVIP Experience
Imagine wearing clothes that not only look good but also make you feel good about expressing your unique style. Picture a jacket with a cool, unconventional design that makes you stand out. That's what AVIP is all about.
Our events and podcast give you a chance to meet other creatives, learn new things, and feel part of a community that values growth and individuality.
Platforming Creatives
At AVIP, we are dedicated to providing a platform for creatives to showcase their talents and share their stories. Our Artist Support Group podcast is a cornerstone of this effort, offering a space where artists, designers, musicians, and other creatives can connect and support each other. Through our events, we bring together a diverse community, fostering collaboration and inspiration. By highlighting and promoting the work of various creatives, AVIP not only supports individual growth but also enriches the broader creative community.
Quality of Clothing
At AVIP, we believe that quality is paramount. Each piece of clothing is meticulously crafted from high-quality materials to ensure durability and comfort. Our commitment to quality extends beyond the aesthetics to the very fabric of our designs, ensuring that they not only look unique but also stand the test of time. Whether it's the precision of our stitching or the careful selection of fabrics, we aim to provide clothing that feels as good as it looks. By focusing on superior craftsmanship, we ensure that every item from AVIP becomes a cherished part of your wardrobe, representing both style and substance.
