CHARLES & RON

Charles & Ron is a contemporary lifestyle brand of high-end clothing and bags. There's a clear Mediterranean influence, and a devotion to quality.

Maltese culture is inseparable from the brand's ethos, and the idea is to inspire customers to instantly find themselves in this universe. For both designers, contrast is key, as is the way they mix contradictory colors.
