About the People:

Elena - As a teenager growing up in Italy, Elena struggled with depression and severe anxiety attacks. Unable to express herself, it took her a long time to understand what was happening. She was scared and too proud to ask for help, feeling like nobody would understand her. When it became debilitating – long days not able to get out of bed, stopping attendance at school – she started therapy whch helped her a lot. As Elena grew older, she became more aware of her emotions, and the people around her helped her a lot to overcome and manage these challenges. Even now, she says “I still have good days and bad days, and I know that’s something I’ll always have to face, but I approach it very differently than before! The simple act of talking about it has helped me immensely.”

Elena - Height: 175cm - Measurements: 84cm / 64cm / 90cm

Jordan - Born and raised in Kingston Jamaica, Jordan Anderson is a creative director and a fashion & culture journalist who is currently based in Milan. His work often magnifies & explores political themes in and outside the fashion industry including race, gender, identity & brand and cultural ethics. With regards to mental health, Anderson highlights the importance and belief of taking care of oneself mentally as much as any other part of the body. He openly regularly takes therapy and meditation as seriously as going to the gym, the nutritionist or to the doctor for a check-up, and recommends this for everyone.

About the Label:

Every EBiT™ item of clothing has the signature 66cm light blue label, containing deep references that yearn to be researched. It's visible through the octagon hole (the octagon being a symbol of rebirth, transition). The label has multiple styling options, intentionally designed to be:

• Worn inside the garment with the flash of blue visible to the outside
• Pulled through the octagon feature and worn externally outside the garment with the long label flowing freely
• Cut-off completely exposing your undergarment, your skin, your tattoo, etc.

The EBiT™ signature long light blue label is symbolic of how we contain or express our inner most emotions every day - being cut off, feeling open yet protected or feeling completely free and externalizing that day.
