FALSE ranks among the most innovative brands on the market. The offerings always feature little twists made possible by the hands on approach. Whether mixed media print creations or unique takes on classic garments, the FALSE method stamps the mark of the maker.
The founder of FALSE, Le Messie, is a literal jack of all creative trades. Graphic artist. Printer. Musician. His success in all realms is frankly frightening. FALSE t-shirts generate more questions and praise than any other I own. Lupe Fiasco has added vocals to Messie’s debut album. Whats more, FALSE changes direction smoothly, and does so without raising quieries about core mission. The absolute beauty of a D.I.Y. approach to creation.
In just four years, FALSE has managed to build considerable reputation, allowing Le Messie and Amanda to work on some superb and truely special collaborations. I caught up with Messie to talk about the origins and backgrounds of False, the land of Singapore and (yes) more.
