If the BBC TV show Antiques Roadshow is still around in 20/30 years ….. and they did a queer version…. then we guarantee there would be young gay guys bringing in their Andrew Christian Jocks asking about their history and value! If you havent heard the sad news yet then we should tell you that fashion designer Andrew Christian that hads made us all feel sexy when we strip down for the past 25 years is
retiring ! His namesake must-have brand is making Bespoke—Fall/Winter 2025 his final collectiion. Ever. When we tracked him down, he told Queerguru “After more than 25 years, my hands will soon lay down the needle that has guided me through this calling. My final words as a designer won’t be spoken aloud, but sewn into my final collection. Soon after, the company will close.”
It all started at the turn of the century as he began selling his sportswear and swimwear to small fashion boutiques, but his company really took off when he launched an underwear line in 2006. Soon it seemed they wasnt a single gay who didnt have Christian’s name poking out of the top of their jeans. As a queer man he understood exactly what we wanted whether we wanted to impress our latest beau, or keep the magic going in the bedroom. He evolved his brand of jocks, thongs, briefs and boxers with inclusive collections such as BIG FAT D*CK and TROPHY BOY for those well endowed, THICK with sizes up to 4XL, SHOW IT – which offers frontal enhancement, and Eco Collective – an eco-friendly line made from recycled bottles.

He was always a forward thinking business man and years before social media took over, Christian enlisted iocal dancers, models, drag queens and adult film stars in sizzling (and often not safe for work) music videos depicting pool parties, car washes and other scantily-clad scenarios.
Christian also uses his platform to speak out on LGBTQ+ equality, co-sponsoring fundraisers, and attending Pride festivals around the world. “Fashion wasn’t just an aspiration; it was survival. It became my sanctuary, my declaration of gay existence,” he shared. “Each stitch was a heartbeat; each garment, not just a part of my story, but my coming out.”
