The Collection...

What are you guys working on for SS10? Custom hardware has really become a focal point of our brand, it is one of the few things that from a material standpoint can ultimately make you unique. For SS10 we created a line of custom metal bands that adorn most of the bags. The bands vary in sizes and design. Some have laser engraving script of lyrics and thoughts, others are in the shape of chain, etc.. the result has what we call GYPSY - LUX .

SS10 collection is the reaction to the action of our FW09 collection. FW09 was an intense focused, forward thinking on-taking. SS10, we looked back, we felt back on each other’s personal nostalgia for inspiration, a time when living was just about being in the moment, traveling was not about reaching a destination…. This is reflected in the finishing of the bags such as our hand tied shoulder straps, raw cut edges and in the individual designs of our custom metal bands; including lyrics and journal thoughts extracted from the past....

BOYY accessories is the partnered creation of designers
Jesse Dorsey and Wannasiri Kongman.

Jesse Dorsey, born and raised in Montreal, Canada, moved to NYC to pursue his burgeoning music career in 1993. Hitting the ground running – working with artists such as the Beastie Boys and Milla Jovovich, scoring music for Cirque du Soleil, having his signature music featured in award-winning feature films and DJing NYC's hot spots - Jesse gained much exposure to the inner sanctums of the entertainment, music and fashion industries, absorbing their creative pulse like a sponge.

Wannasiri Kongman, born and raised in Bangkok, Thailand, received her degree in journalism before her talent for style started quickly pushing her on her way. She was picked up as a buyer for the first ever teen division of one of Thailand’s top department stores, “Central”. And in 2003, the pull of big dreams and the big unknown prompted her to pack up her bags and move to the US. After a stint in DC, her creative urges and undying love and interest for fashion brought her to NYC’s Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) where she studied fashion design.

Jesse and Wannasiri met in NYC in 2004 and soon thereafter began their creative collaboration. The two exercised their ideas, philosophies and ambitions for 6 months before launching BOYY's first collection - Spring/Summer ‘06. Jesse and Wannasiri now navigate the globe, spending their time and finding inspiration between
NYC, Bangkok and Italy.
