XARTFIVE by Ivan Angelov
Hello dear readers , today I would like to tell you about a poor boy from the western part of Sofia , where the idea for the brand was born! Not more than 4 years ago and now we are driving 5 ta , in one sleepless night I created the brand "X-5" namely
"X" from - extremely something crazy and forbidden , from ART - art and a way to express yourself with a palette and fi
nally FIVE comes from my favorite number and the date I was born! It all started when I picked up the brush and started spraying a baseball cap with a visor , put some white spray then some pink and took , it turned out interesting and stylish. People's reaction surprised me when they started ordering and asking me for more pieces. I then moved on to the stage of foiling my items and splashing paint on them accordingly and it made for an interesting combination which people also liked , everything was going well until I came across the interest of investors and people with opportunities , who wanted to "help" me develop my business but it didn't work out and I had to pay back what they invested and without any success for me and my brand but as you know not everything is "flowers and roses" and since then I realized that for me this is not just a brand and a business but a passion and a way of expressing myself in every creation I make. I remember when I was younger and I wanted to have short ripped jeans , I used to go with my mom and dad to a bit market called whip and from there I used to take old maro jeans and turn them into something interesting and nice to wear , I used to do the same with t-shirts and long sleeve shirts and sweatshirts. I cut , cut , scrubbed with the kitchen grater and then sprayed with an old paintbrush and told myself , why wear "someone else's" clothes when I can wear something that is mine! The style and street fashion sense has been in me since early childhood. I love to dress well, to combine certain styles and always with the right accessories!
