Our denim story / 24SS PRODUCT
The temperature has risen and the cherry blossoms are signaling the arrival of spring.
.
In this blog, I will talk a little about the original denim fabrics that I was able to create through the pursuit of Kraftwerk.
.
Shota Hiyama's 24 Spring/Summer collection started with sunflowers, and he wrote down the keywords that came to mind on paper.
.
Alongside sunflowers, flower children, hippies and Woodstock, there is a 70's style, and for me, denim was essential.
.
Just as I layered the words, I decided to layer the fabric as well.
.
.
Denim from Hiroshima, which we always use. This time, 12.5 ounces of 100% cotton has been processed in three ways: one-wash, fade, and bleach.
.
.
They were sewn to look like warp and weft threads and were transformed into a single denim fabric. The idea came from my experience as a hand weaver.
.
When I received a sample of a new patchwork expression that took advantage of my own atelier, I was thrilled. Neither fabric shops nor sewing shops will do it.
.
.
We named this fabric "OVERLAP." It means to overlap, to overlap.
.
To be honest, it is not suitable for mass production because it takes a lot of time and effort to make a single piece of denim fabric before making clothes. But it's cool. That's why I make it. That's it.
. .
There are 3 types of items in the overlap series using this fabric.
.
A cute zip-up blouson with a boxy silhouette.
.
My favorite wide straight pants are not too wide.
.
A modern bag with a voluminous feel like a news paper bag.
.
.
All products are washed after treatment. Each fringe is created differently.
.
If you want to enjoy the gradual aging of your clothes, please turn them inside out when washing and place them in a net.
.
Clothes that pack a sense of playfulness into universal forms are typical of our clothes.
.
That's all about our denim.
