About bluecollarwhitecollar

A Cape Town guy, Paul van der Spuy. Passionate about retro motorbikes and cars, jeans and tees, and getting his fingers . My stores and design are really a simple expression of what I see and feel. I'm not influenced by fashion trends, but rather by nostalgic fantasy.Clothing isn't really my first love, I just happened to fall into it at an early age and it became a part of me. In fact I prefer motorbikes, retro cars and foreign movies.
