Since her days with famed indie-rock band Sonic Youth, Kim Gordon has traded in her bass for a designer's table with various forays into the world of fashion.

Gordon has now teamed with the clothing retailer & Other Stories to create a unique line of clothing, including shirts, sweatshirts, scarves, and necklaces. Each item has been hand-painted by Gordon and emblazoned with short phrases such as "Her" and "The Other."

Coco Gordon Moore, Gordon's daughter, inspired her vision and serves as the model for the fashion line's look book. Gordon found further inspiration in simple words and pronouns.
"I decided to do pronouns because I like the idea of a word, and the sense of drama surrounding it," Gordon told Vogue of the metallic word designs. "Thinking of a word can create an atmosphere, and there's a certain mystery about it. The screen printing makes the pieces feel more crafted and one-of-a-kind."
The full collection will be available to purchase Aug. 31.
