Another week passes! This one was influenced greatly by books, expert archivist outfits, and post-birthday window shopping. Enjoy!
HI
Over $100, for dreaming.
I once heard from a very stylish professor (Oberies will undoubtedly guess who) that he saw a Japan-exlusive pair of these Kapital Century Denim Sumi Trail Pants No.7. I am happy to have found them so many months later.
G.O.A. Cargo Bono Jacket, for military inspired yet fun inflected outerwear.
This undercover FW22 Biker Jacket is tougher than your average Comme rider jacket, but still quite femme.
eYe Junya Watanabe Comme des Garçons MAN Utility Jacket. For stealing a Banksy on a budget.
The Dries Van Noten SS17 Patchwork Jean offers another craft heavy, funky take on classic denim.
THE ALTERNATIVE DESIGNERS’ SS24 CROP
Puppets and Puppets RAVE TROUSER IN TAN or Black. This is the final season of P&P’s ready-to-wear before they move to London to focus on accessories. Grab while you can.
While the Simone Rocha Pointed Collar Shirt is from last season, this piece seems like a rather timeless slice of the coquette-core trend.
A favorite, the Melitta Baumeister SS24 Black Culottes. Too stiff and too black? Try her Green cropped denim pants
I can’t quite detect the “robot“ in Doublet’s SS24 Robot Leg Trousers, but rest assured they are boxy and magnificent.
The Hodakova double suit jacket coat is a gorgeous piece of what truly innovative upcycling can be. Hodakova is a new discovery from Dover Street Market, but the brand has also worked with Gucci.
Speaking of inventive upcycling, more adventurous and tuned-in corset fans may enjoy these Choppova Lowena iterations made from children’s blankets. Each is a 1 of 1.
