Summary
Ametora (book by W. David Marx on Japanese style), on the shoulders of the WASPs and who could have been photographed in the photo book TAKE IVY (spoiler: she is not there).The best part about this piece: it brings fun, character and goes very easily into my wardrobe . And no, I'm not a clown.
Unfortunately, despite significant digging, the precious one does not yet belong to me . This type of piece is generally offered by hype brands - those that make you love (almost) everything just with their styling.
I'm also eyeing the Drake's one from their summer 2022 collection . I can imagine it very well with a vintage 501 , my jodoga and the Casoli to redo their look."
Yann, a jacket
"I am literally fascinated by pea coats. With its charm from another time, its lapel and its characteristic borders, it is a piece that takes me on a historical and geographical journey . Half Corto Maltese, half Popeye, we wear the jacket when it is necessary to assert one's dedication, one's bravery Historically.
Nourished by this collective imagination, I tirelessly searched for a new jacket (and not found in surplus) AND original . Some brands have risked reinterpretation, without much success.
And then... I saw this: a slightly cropped Kenzo jacket (which will force me to wear high-waisted pants) in impeccable white, with the piping and the cuff that I wanted. It is rare that a specific piece (especially coming from a brand with CSR… questionable) has such an effect on me . This must be a sign. I would happily wear it with nice wool pants, a shirt or a polo shirt underneath, with a pair of suede derbies or discreet sneakers, without worrying too much. A room like that is enough in itself!
