The never-before-seen Free To product story was finalized by Alber in his last weeks with the AZ Factory team. Messages of escapism and hope are crafted in bold, hand-embroidered lettering on elevated hoodies, tops, and sweatpants made of eco-sustainable fabrics. Alber brought his signature raw-edged satin ribbon and metallic details to pieces he envisioned as an answer to the sartorial needs of women today. The mood-boosting leisurewear is the newest addition to AZ Factory’s modular wardrobe, with pieces consistently providing elegance and comfort.

As part of the June launch, AZ Factory will also introduce handbags as a new product category. Conceived by Alber to allow women to freely hug and feel hugged, the handbags feature an adjustable multi-strap and lightweight chain fixtures for flexible wear. Created from high-frequency, molded nylon, the modular bags can be worn cross-body, on the shoulder, belted at the waist, or held in hand.

In accordance with Alber’s wishes to support LGBTQ+ youth and desire to encourage all people to be free to love, a portion of the proceeds from the Free To story will be donated to the It Gets Better Project, whose mission is to uplift, empower, and connect LGBTQ+ youth around the globe.
