Today we would like to introduce a comfortable brand mix of styles perfect for this season from Maison Margiela and Omar Afridi, both of which are carried at FASCINATE KYOTO.
Mix Style of Brands with Different Directions
The coordinate we introduce today is a mix style of two brands characterized by their luxurious fabric feel and distinctive designs.
It features items with meticulously selected fabrics and simple yet profoundly thought-out designs, projecting the uniqueness of each brand into very distinctive items.
Both brands, despite their different directions, have gained significant popularity for their elegance derived from their choice of fabrics and pattern making.
Please enjoy this unique combination of contrasting brands.
Model 184cm/71kg. Wearing size :knit/size S, T-shirt/size 46, pants/size 46, shoes/size 42.
Refined Designs Based on Workwear
First, let's introduce the classic item from Maison Margiela, the Driver's knit.
As the name suggests, this item was designed based on knits favored by truck drivers.
At the time, drivers found side pockets inconvenient and dangerous during the loading and unloading of cargo, leading to their omission.
This design philosophy results in a very simple front design, with the back featuring only the brand's unique stitch design, ensuring the overall piece is free from unnecessary elements and neatly compiled.
Margiela often bases its designs on workwear items worn by workers, with German trainers and tabi shoes being prime examples.
However, the ability to wear these items without feeling overly work-like can be attributed to the refined pattern making and meticulous choice of fabrics.
While a beautiful wool set-up is also very appealing, workwear-based items that can be worn daily are highly recommended.
Unique Details with a Focus on Visuals
Lastly, let's introduce the bottoms.
These are the Totem Cargo pants, a new standard item that started its debut from the 23AW collection, accentuated with metal buttons and ZIP designs.
A distinctive design feature is the cover detail that hides the belt loops at the waist.
This cover ensures a very neat fit around the waist, allowing shirts or T-shirts tucked in to look beautiful.
True to cargo pants style, side cargo pockets are incorporated, and zippers installed at the bottom of these pockets allow for changing the silhouette around the pockets.
It's a design that offers double the enjoyment from a single pair of bottoms.
While the basic details follow the many existing cargo pants designs, adopting the brand's original designs elevates them to a unique creation.
Our store also carries a wide selection of items from Maison Margiela and Omar Afridi. Please do stop by at our store FASCINATE_THE R. We look forward to welcoming you!
