Gawaa x The Social Outfit

We're proud to welcome Mongolian-born Australian artist Gawaa to The Social Outfit Fam. Introducing our Gawaa x The Social Outfit, a brand new print collaboration for our Spring/Summer 20 collection 'FAM BAM'!

"It’s a big part I think because I’m from a really different culture, like almost 360 degrees, I feel like my heart is turned around, just to fit into this country, you know, learning a language, learning a lifestyle and learning a lot of things, it’s quite a big journey and I feel like I’m stuck between two cultures now. But I’m Mongolian. I was born in Mongolia."

"But I think I’m really influenced by both, the Mongolian side and the Australian."

About Gawaa:

Gawaa's skills are multi-disciplinary. He is a painter, sculptor, photographer, video and mixed-media artist and exhibits his art both here in Sydney and in Mongolia. His works are often vibrant and daring commentary on identity, modernity and authenticity, with his humour shining between the layers. He is heavily influenced both from his Mongolian and his Australian sides and the result is evident in his references and work. 

Gawaa has exhibited widely, including at exhibitions at Stirrup Gallery, Chrissie Cotter Gallery, Alpha Gallery, 107 Projects, M2 and Tortuga Gallery in Sydney, as well as shows in Italy, Melbourne, Braidwood and Mongolia.

I'm not sure which size to order.

We totally get it - shopping online can be super tricky! That's why we've put together a couple of resources to help make your shopping experience just that much easier.

You can check out our Sizing page for our general sizing information as well as our Model Size Guide that'll hopefully give you a reference point.

We also provide garment measurements for each product on its product listing page - we recommend going old school, grabbing a tape measure and comparing a similar garment you have at home to the one you're planning to purchase!
