Gibron Whitney Shepperd, a 2019 CFDA Future Fashion Graduate, was born in a multicultural/multi-ethnic home in Southern California. Spending much of his youth with his family in the nature of Northern California, these exposures have influenced his perspectives on design.
Shepperd's work has been featured in print publications, films, and creative projects such as Human Shift, Wussy Magazine, and Beyonce's Black Is King. He creates a design world that is sophisticated and sensitive. Shepperd delivers intrinsically desirable clothing and art objects for men through exceptional materials, textures, tantalizing colors, and provocative shapes and patterns through the brand seek. The philosophy at GIBRON is to push the field of menswear forward; the male form must be subjected to interpretation, objectified, and studied much like its female counterpart has been for centuries. Emphasizing gender neutrality and androgyny and removing the man from a "practical life," exploring color and silhouettes from cultures beyond the Western canon.
