This season, the design concept centers around the idea of a banquet table, where traditional clothing elements are deconstructed and reimagined to create a variety of garments infused with the characteristics of a "head chef." Continuously breaking down and reshaping conventional silhouettes, the collection embraces the brand's expertise in the deconstructive style of one garment, multiple wears.The result is a reconstruction and deconstruction of traditional styles into modern and trendy shirt designs, featuring the introduction of several classic gender-neutral pieces in this season's lineup.
This shirt deconstructs early traditional suit uniforms by dismantling both the suit vest and shirt structures and reconfiguring them. Design-wise, shirt buttons are deconstructed into tie-like straps, fastened together with ties on both sides akin to a suit tie. This adds a touch of refinement to the overall aesthetic. The ties can also be loosened for a natural drape. Notably, a double-layered drape detail is intentionally crafted on the right side hem, enhancing the shirt's frontal visual depth and echoing the tie collar. This piece is effortlessly versatile, easily pairing with both trousers and skirts.

The inspiration for this season comes from the traditional Taiwanese banquet known as "Ban-Doh." Ban-Doh is not just about catering; it's a complete banquet service that connects people during every special occasion such as weddings, funerals, celebrations of newborns, and temple festivals. It weaves connections between individuals who wish to meet and chat on special days, making it an integral part of Taiwanese culture.
"Ban-Doh" not only pays homage to the gradually fading Taiwanese culture but also aims to reinterpret tradition with a modern flair, following our brand's 21SS collection, "Connextion," in hopes to emphasize the importance of human connections in today's society.
In terms of clothing design, we've incorporated elements inspired by the season's theme, deconstructing and reconstructing traditional attire. Particularly, we've focused on the distinctive attire of the "Ban-Doh" master, reimagining its iconic double-breasted jacket and apron into modern shirt styles. The prints draw inspiration from traditional Ban-Doh elements such as round tables, red plastic chairs, lanterns, and canopies. These elements are deconstructed and cleverly combined, arranged in a pixelated manner to create a fashionable and elegant classic style.
The color palette includes INF's classic dark hues, as well as the traditional red, green, and blue from the Taiwanese Qie Zhi bag, creating a unique impression that combines modernity with traditional style.
