Eyes & Ears » E.G.R. - EngineeRED by REMY


Rebel When You Find Your Cause! "I am an engineer/designer and I make all the clothing myself. I am doing this to show the world my vision of fashion, from inspiration, my struggle, my dream, my hunger for success, love, and pain."

REMY HOU is an engineer/designer, "what you are witnessing is my vision through my eyes. I represent the endurance of a fighter, when the body is weak and tired; the only thing that will keep you going is your heart".

REMY HOU endured struggles and hardship from the land mines of Cambodia to the hoods of Long Beach.

"This is my heart, pieces of memories and life struggle that inspire me to make what you wear. No matter what you face in life, it's the decisions you make today...that lead to a better tomorrow."

REMY HOU came to the US in 1990, he didn't speak English, and his mother worked hard to make sure food was on the table every night. It was when his neighbor asked him to help sew labels for her that he discovered his passion for fashion, he was 12 years old.

"How can we change the world, easy, we have to change from within. E.G.R. is not just a brand, its represent the journey, the fall, the rise, the pursuit of happiness, the dreams and it represent me."

"I'm inspired because I believe in change; I'm only one man, but there's a million minds out there just like me; I am that visionary who wants to make my designs speak without saying a word."
