INF 23AW Deconstructing the Aristocratic Collar Long Panel Shirt
This season takes inspiration from the "Ama", continuously deconstructing and reshaping traditional silhouettes, incorporating wave-like elements. Embracing the brand's expertise in deconstructive style, it once again presents the transformative and versatile "one garment, multiple styles" design. In today's gender-neutral fashion landscape, the brand continues to deconstruct and redefine representative clothing for both men and women while maintaining its classic dark aesthetic DNA.
Drawing inspiration from the classic silhouette of the brand's long panel shirt, the upper body panel undergoes collaborative deconstruction, resulting in a dual-layered structure. This design introduces an inner and outer layer, with cord and button details placed on each side of the outer layer. The cords can be freely cinched, creating a gathered effect or tied onto the buttons on the opposite side, presenting a visually striking undulating panel effect reminiscent of waves. Unfastening the cords reveals a unique style with a hint of knightly military inspiration.
On the left side of the lower hem, the design incorporates deconstruction techniques as well, crafting a layered split for a nuanced interplay with the upper body. This clever layering not only highlights the finesse in design but also showcases the brand's timeless concept of versatile dressing through a single garment.

"We are squandering the resources bestowed upon us by nature, and we don't have a second Earth."
This season, the clothing structure draws inspiration from the characteristics of the ocean, incorporating wave-like elements into garments such as shirts and suit hems. The use of crisscrossing straps and ties evokes imagery reminiscent of swimwear. By leveraging the differences in fabric textures, the combination of glossy fabrics and straps creates a layered effect, mimicking the appearance of clothing worn by a sea nymph when soaked by seawater.
The print designs are inspired by the glistening ripples reflected on the sea's surface. Utilizing digital synthesis techniques, these prints transform ocean waste materials into patterns that blend the beautiful and the unsettling, creating a fashionable style. The choice of fabric material is particularly environmentally conscious, as recycled PET bottles are used to create yarn, symbolizing the coexistence of sustainability with the sea nymph culture.
This season's collection not only embraces the essence of the ocean but also pays tribute to ecological awareness. It combines ocean-inspired structural elements with innovative digital print designs and eco-friendly fabric choices, aligning fashion with a strong commitment to environmental responsibility.
