Today we would like to introduce a robe jacket with a distinctive haori-like design from KLASICA , which is available at FASCINATE_THE R (Shinsaibashi, Osaka).
Traditional Haori Style with a Modern Twist
The featured item from the KLASICA 24SS collection is the 'HAOLE,' a key piece in our latest styling.
Haori, traditionally worn in Japan as a classic form of outerwear, has an uncertain origin but has been an essential part of Japanese clothing for centuries.
This season's design uniquely combines the deep flavors of Japanese aesthetics with the refined elements of European design.
We invite you to experience its distinctive allure.
Model 181cm/62kg. Wearing size: Jacket/Size 3, Shirt/Size 3, Pants/Size 3.
A Fusion of Japanese and European Designs
As mentioned, the haori incorporates both Japanese and European design elements.
Its base is the traditional Japanese haori, characterized by a pattern that does not naturally overlap at the front and typically requires tying with strings.
In contrast to kimonos, haori serve more like cardigans in Japanese clothing, offering easy wear and temperature regulation.
Keeping this traditional aspect intact, the haori is modernized with set-in sleeves, making it more akin to contemporary Western clothing.
The sleeves are slightly wider and longer, retaining the essence of Japanese clothing while ensuring ease of use.
The designer's intent for this unique combination is to offer flexibility not just in the concept but in the garment itself.
Simplicity Revealing Attention to Detail
For the bottoms, we have chosen the brand's staple wide pants 'GOSSE.'
Each season, KLASICA introduces a few signature fabrics, and these pants are invariably released using these materials.
Widely acclaimed for their sophisticated pattern-making, the appeal of these pants lies in their refined simplicity.
Focused on easy enjoyment, they are crafted without unnecessary elements, using cutting-edge techniques like tucking and gathering to create a beautiful silhouette.
The result is a pair of pants that epitomize KLASICA's commitment to simplicity and attention to detail, evident in the beautifully curved outline and the nuanced waistline.
We invite you to visit FASCINATE_THE R to explore our wide range of KLASICA items.
We look forward to welcoming you.
