Look who is wearing our logo T-shirt: our friend and owner & director of Soze Gallery, Toowee Kao.

Toowee Kao is a gallerist and private art dealer who represents two of our ambassadors at her Los Angeles-based Soze Gallery: Jaybo Monk and Augustine Kofie. But also for all the other young contemporary artists who are entrusted in her care Toowee Kao is an essential supporter since she is not only a natural talent when it comes to art business but also aims to make being an artist a little less hard in every way and offers an artist residency in downtown Los Angeles for Sozes Gallery’s international artists. In short: Toowee Kao has got her eyes on the future of art and never stops impressing us with her power; she supports young contemporary artists in their creative pursuit of success and happiness.

What we see: Bali

Our friend and Berlin-based co-founder of MADE, Nico Zeh takes a rest. His beautiful haven: Bali. His companions: his family and our IWISHUSUN logo T-shirt. We enjoy this glorious view and wish you a merry christmas, Nico!

Check out Nico’s interview here and learn more about his thoughts, amongst others about his vision for his personal work: “I try to stay true and honest to myself and my principles in everything that I do. Only through this, can the work – any kind of action – truly shine and represent your own personal development and growth towards your own truth.”

Also, you can order your own IWISHUSUN log T-shirt here and finance a pair of glasses for a school child in Bangladesh with every tee sold online.

Winter has come to Berlin which means it’s getting cold but our down jacket is a great companion. Our friend Peggy is perfectly prepared for the cold season with our ultralight down jacket and looks amazing!

Check out our down jackets that will keep you warm and at the same finance a cataract operation in Bangladesh with every jacket sold. Shop them here.

Enjoying life in Miami, Alexandra from Daily Social Diary sends a postcard home. Our IWISHUSUN bag accompanies her and is a perfect companion for strolling through Art Basel Miami’s gallery boxes, bathing in the sun and traveling. Thank you for this beautiful picture, dear Alexandra!

Our bag comes in black and natural leather and whilst the IWISHUSUN logo is embossed into the strap in a small circle, the leather patch inside is a reminder of the good deed the buyer has done with the purchase of the new bag: “It’s good for you and good for others”. Every bag sold continues the cooperation with the non-profit-organisation ORBIS International, with which we continue to finance cataract operations. Purchase your own bag here.

Last week we launched our limited edition T-shirts by Marcelo Burlon – County of Milan and IWISHSUN by inviting everyone to a brunch at SOTO Store. Healthy breakfast, summer temperatures and interesting conversations turned this event into a wonderful experience. For all those who could not join the brunch, we have already presented the highlights here. But who else joined the brunch and took pictures? And who bought one of our collab T-shirts (during the event or online) and presents himself wearing it? We collected the best shots that have been published on Instagram. Beginning with Favelapunk (shot by Marcelo Burlon, @marceloburlon), you can check out the other pictures below:

About the T-shirt in collaboration with Marcelo Burlon:

Taken from his Autumn/Winter collection 2013/14, Marcelo Burlon has designed an exclusive colourway for IWISHUSUN: a limited edition T-shirt adorned by an abstract owl on the front, which also gives an insight into his upcoming collection – the perfect animal to symbolise our mission to ensure eyesight for everyone.

You can now buy your own Marcelo Burlon x IWISHUSUN T-shirt on iwishusun.net. With every T-shirt sold, in cooperation with our partner ORBIS, a cataract eye operation will be financed in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
