Enfants Riches Deprimes “The Well of Loneliness” Hoodie

Enfants Riches Déprimés “The Well of Loneliness” Hoodie

This hoodie pays homage to Radclyffe Hall’s The Well of Loneliness, a hallmark of queer literature that shattered the expectations of the early 20th century. ERD doesn’t print random graphics for the sake of having something on a hoodie, the literary reference here carries real weight, and the brand builds the entire piece around that connection rather than treating it as a passing nod.

Long-sleeve pullover hooded sweatshirt made of heavyweight brushed French terry, with a boxy, drop-shoulder fit and double layer hood. Printed artwork appears at both the front and back, finished with ERD’s signature vintage wash process. Made in the USA.

Product Details

Why the Literary Reference Matters

Radclyffe Hall’s novel was banned in the UK upon its 1928 publication and became one of the defining works of early queer literature, a book that directly confronted subject matter most publishers and readers of the era refused to engage with. ERD referencing it isn’t aesthetic dressing, it connects to the brand’s broader interest in subjects most fashion labels avoid entirely, treated with the same bleak, distressed visual language that defines everything else ERD makes.

The faded, vintage wash printing on the artwork reinforces that connection, the graphic doesn’t look freshly printed or commercially polished, it looks like something pulled from decades ago, which fits both the book’s history and ERD’s overall aesthetic.

How to Wear It

As the focal point
Black jeans or trousers below, letting the faded front and back artwork carry the look without competition.

Layered under outerwear
The boxy, drop-shoulder fit works well under a plain jacket, with the double layer hood adding bulk that reads intentional rather than accidental.

Sizing

Fits true to size. Take your normal size for the intended boxy, drop-shoulder silhouette.

Care Instructions

Hand wash cold to preserve the vintage wash finish and printed artwork. Air dry flat away from direct sunlight. Do not tumble dry. Do not bleach. Avoid excessive scrubbing on the printed areas, as the faded effect is part of the intentional finish and can be altered by harsh washing.
