GIVE US A BRIEF INTRODUCTION FOR YOU AND YOUR BRAND

I’m Mona-Lisa, the founder and designer of One Society, a gym wear brand inspired by UK streetwear, designed for people who want to move seamlessly from the gym to anywhere in between. It’s more than just clothing,it’s about building a community and offering a sustainable alternative to fast fashion. With limited releases, we avoid overproduction while creating exclusive designs that blend style, functionality and responsible sourcing.

WHAT EXCITING PIECES DO YOU HAVE @ THE BOXPARK RETAIL STORE?

At the Boxpark retail store, I’m showcasing One Society’s first drop; the Bulking Sets, designed for both performance and everyday wear. For those who are curious, there’s also an unreleased design in-store for anyone who wants a sneak peek at what’s coming next.

WHY WILL 2025 BE YOUR YEAR?

This year has already been a big one for One Society, we launched just a few months ago, and we’re already close to selling out our first drop. We’ve also been invited to showcase our pieces at fashion shows, which is an exciting step. But 2025 is about more than just growth; it’s about building a real community. One Society isn’t just about selling clothes, it’s about bringing people together through a shared passion for fashion and activewear, creating something that feels authentic and connected.

WHAT DOES 'NOBODY LIKE US EXCEPT US' MEAN TO YOU?

“Nobody Like Us Except Us” embodies everything One Society stands for. It’s about creating something authentic for the people who truly connect with it, those who understand the culture, the vision, and the purpose behind what we do. One Society isn’t just about gym wear; it’s about building a community that merges fashion and activewear, where like-minded individuals can come together and represent something real. We’re not trying to mass-sell or be for everyone, and that’s the point,not everyone will get it, and that’s okay. The ones who do are the ones who truly belong.

WHAT'S NEXT UP FOR YOU?

Next up is dropping the new collection and pushing the brand further, but in a way that stays true to what One Society is about. We’re not looking to expand too fast, we’re more focused on deep-diving into our niche and making sure we deliver the best quality and designs for our community. It’s about refining what we do, exploring new ideas, and seeing how far we can take this while staying authentic while staying true to our values.

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO SOMEONE STARTING OUT / THINKING ABOUT DOING SO?

I’d say don’t start something just because you think it’ll make you a lot of money, do it because you actually want to make it part of your everyday life. Building something from the ground up takes time, and if you’re not genuinely passionate about it, it’ll be hard to keep going when things get tough. Focus on creating something meaningful, stay consistent, and be ready to adapt and learn along the way.
