A GLITCH IN THE MATRIX

— OR A MOMENT OF TRUTH?

A story about identity, clones, and the digital war for the self.

They say a glitch is an interruption — a small error in the system that breaks the loop. In our digital age, where identity lives both in the body and in bits, that interruption becomes an act of rebellion. At &TIMELESS, we fed that rebellion into every thread of our first drop.

But from the very beginning, this wasn’t about fashion in the traditional sense. It was about designing a character — an origin myth for our brand. We weren’t looking to dress people. We were trying to code a new muse: indestructible, curious, raging to break out of her programmed path. A clone, built flawless — but destined to fight back. To override the system that made her. To become better than the original… or question if she ever needed to be a copy at all.

”The glitch is the moment of awakening. The error in the system that lets the truth break through.”

– &TIMELESS Philosophy

A WARDROBE FOR THE NEW AVATAR

We designed this collection as if our clone had reached singularity — choosing pieces for a final confrontation, not a front row. Each garment reflects a deep inner conflict: bold yet fractured, precise yet corrupted. This was our rebellion against fashion norms too —against minimalism for the sake of marketability. These clothes misbehave, just like us.

From asymmetrical shapes to bleached denim, every silhouette is a confrontation, not camouflage. We intentionally distorted structure, balance, and symmetry. Think: modular tailoring, raw seams, deliberate distressing. You’re not supposed to just “wear” these pieces. You’re meant to experience them — like stepping into a broken simulation. Like looking in the mirror and realizing the reflection isn't obeying.

We didn’t just design fashion — we wrote code.

And when you hit enter, it lives outside our control. That’s where the chaos begins. That’s where the matrix breaks.

FROM DISTORTED FORM TO DIGITAL MYTH

Inspired by the duality of our own choices — confidence vs. concealment, reality vs. digitality — the collection explores what happens when we refuse to choose between extremes. Baggy for hiding. Tailored for power. And somewhere in between? The glitch. The identity not yet finalized. The wardrobe not yet approved.

We didn’t always know what the glitch would look like.

I still remember the first time we bleached one of our early prototypes — hands trembling, hearts racing like we’d just hit enter on unstable code. There was no undo button. No preview. Just fabric, bleach, pressure, and hope. But when we unfolded it… it was magic. That’s when we knew: this wasn’t just an effect. This was our method. This was the glitch we’d been waiting for.

The thing is, distress isn’t decoration for us. It doesn’t come at the end — it starts the moment we begin shaping. Cut the wrong edge, flip the wrong face, and the fabric begins to fight back. The fray isn’t planned. It’s born.

Each time we sew the pieces together — armhole, front face, raw edge — the distressing already begins. The fabric rebels, layers shift, seams stretch. We guide the form… and then the chaos begins. That’s what we call glitching reality.

And bleach? That’s the final truth serum. The moment the liquid touches wrapped denim and color begins to unravel — the pattern reveals itself. The transformation you can’t script.

Each piece acts as a layer of myth, a relic from a future that hasn’t happened yet:

• A corset caught mid-glitch, trailing asymmetric ribbons.
• Jorts that refuse permissions but demand attention.
• A vest worn down by ghosts of previous code.
• A tie-dye dress, both confident and revealing, paired with a square tote meant to spill — because the clone is no longer afraid of being seen.

These weren’t garments created to solve problems. They were made to create questions. Like:

• Who are you really in this digital-first world?
• If you could become something else… would you?
• Can a wardrobe you love but never touch be any less real?

THE SYSTEM DROP: A QUICK LOOK INSIDE

This first drop features 9 glitched garments, split across our first design sector — Sector_001. Think of it as fashion corrupted by code. Structure melted, norms rewritten, identity laid bare.

Key pieces include:

• Undetected Pattern Dress – invisible to algorithms, romantic in rebellion
• Twisted Trousers – a cocoon fit that denies symmetry and belts
• Rhythm Disrupted Corset – part corset, part dress, fully glitched
• Distressed Signal Vest – hourglass tailoring, worn by ghosts
• Dual Path Overshirt – unisex, oversized, and built for inner conflict
• Cut-off Signal Jorts – classic tailoring corrupted into cool defiance
• Undefined Twin Top – a blueprint-less body, fragmented and oversized

All rendered in raw denim and custom bleached surfaces that recall signal distortion. Each piece was made to be worn, glitched, and rewritten by you. Because once the code is released, it no longer belongs to the creator.

WHY THIS MATTERS NOW

Reality is expanding. Our phones reflect us more than mirrors. Our digital selves walk ahead of us. We curate. We code. We log in to become. But what happens when our digital clones start to believe they’re the real us? When identity becomes a battleground?

We don’t have all the answers. But we know this:

Fashion isn’t just decoration. It’s armor. It’s myth. It’s defiance.

And this collection is an uprising.

FINAL TRANSMISSION

So if you ever feel like reality is slipping, if your reflection starts looking like someone else’s post, or if your closet starts whispering “this isn’t really you anymore”…

Come find us.

We’re the error in the system.
