The Brand was inspired by its founder's experience in film, it "targeted a niche market where fashion design, film school and “Wes Andersonian charm” would intersect"[2] and was named after the French New Wave film Bande á Parte by Jean Luc Godard. The brand was known for a commitment to quality construction, which lead to the high prices that drove the company to bankruptcy, as customers were not willing to pay the brand's high retail prices for clothing that was stylistically analogous to clothing readily and cheaply available at other retailers.[2]
