Today we would like to introduce a styling of OLUBIYI THOMAS ’s single front blazer, currently available at FASCINATE_THE R (Osaka Shinsaibashi store), combined with JAN-JAN VAN ESSCHE 's bottoms.
Olubiyi Thomas: Fusion of avant-garde and modern.
Having learned tailoring techniques under Sarah Burton, who has announced her retirement as Creative Director of Alexander McQueen after the Spring/Summer 2024 collection, Olubiyi Thomas is a designer specializing in avant-garde and original styles.
His creations take traditional tailoring techniques and reinterpret them from his own unique perspective, using unpredictable shapes and structures to captivate the viewer.
His items are handmade in London using expert craftsmanship, precision cutting, and exceptional techniques.
Inspiration from his own multicultural background brings deep meaning and diversity to his work.
It is also a perfect blend of traditional British tailoring and his Nigerian roots.
Model 181cm/58kg. Wearing size: Jacket/Size 3, Shirt/Size 48, Pants/Size S.
To combines traditional patchwork techniques with modern design.
The outerwear featured today is the new Fat Peak Single Front Blazer from Olubiyi Thomas' Autumn/Winter 2023 collection.
The blazer is expertly hand-patched vertically, utilizing various atelier scraps such as antique wool linen, velvet fur, corduroy, and cotton, delicately sewing together different pieces of fabric.
While patchwork has long been appreciated in many cultures as a brilliant blend of creativity and practicality, in the contemporary fashion world, this traditional technique is being reinterpreted as a new trend.
The items produced using this technique are gaining attention as a way to promote environmental consciousness and effective use of resources through the use of waste and recycled materials amidst a growing awareness of sustainability.
The brand's items are handmade one by one, and the fabrics used are one-of-a-kind, so no two items are alike and have an originality of their own.
In addition, despite its avant-garde design, the black fabric used for this piece makes it easy to combine with simple items such as jeans and slacks, making it a surprisingly versatile piece.
Extra wide pants harmonize with a tailored jacket
The bottoms are coordinated with extra wide pants by JAN JAN VAN ESSCHE.
The styling focused on the balance between the beautifully tailored jacket and the voluminous bottoms.
The bold fabric volume of these extra wide pants revolutionizes the concept of wide pants and presents new style possibilities for the wearer.
The bottoms are a perfect match for the Olubiyi Thomas jacket, where the subtle lines of the jacket blend perfectly with the relaxed silhouette of the extra wide trousers to create a balanced look.
The beautiful drape created as the wearer moves gives the garment a unique atmosphere, enabling the wearer to look both stylish and relaxed.
