The blazer silhouette this season reinterprets both formal and casual cropped jackets. While retaining the sharp, structured shoulder line and padding typical of formal blazers, it maintains a relaxed fit characteristic of casual wear. The pattern has been carefully refined through multiple adjustments, creating a more defined waistline that flatters any body shape, whether worn by men or women. Two practical front pockets enhance functionality, and a back vent provides ease of movement while preventing excessive creasing around the hips.
This season's print takes inspiration from the kamon crests of Japan's Sengoku period, featuring a unique pattern of cranes inspired by the traditional Japanese folktale Tsuru no Ongaeshi ("The Grateful Crane"). Rendered in INF's signature dark tones, with additional hues of red and blue, this print strikes a balance between modern sensibility and traditional charm.
For styling, this blazer can be worn with matching print shirts and trousers for a sleek, cohesive look or mixed with pieces in contrasting prints for a bold, vibrant outfit that adds depth and character.

The collection drew inspiration from Kabuki culture, a group known for their extravagant attire and unconventional behavior during Japan's late Sengoku period. These individuals, referred to as "Kabukimono," shaped contemporary pop culture with their bold and unconventional lifestyle. Reflecting on the present, fashion continues to be driven by innovation and rebellion, INF wants to invite everyone to become modern-day Kabukimono.
The clothing structure draws on traditional Japanese silhouettes, such as haori, hakama, and jinbei, as the foundation, and deconstructs them with modern pieces like suits and shirts. Designs like kimono bomber jackets and jinbei suits strike a perfect balance between vintage and innovation. In line with INF’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, the collection uses the highest-quality materials and tailored designs, allowing the garments to adapt to various occasions, reducing waste and fashion excess. As designer Kuo Wei puts it: "We aim to prevent waste before it happens, enhancing the brand's sustainability impact."
