ARCHIVE STYLING Vol.19
Archive Fashion Newly Defined by Stylist Lambda Takahasi
Vest : Saint Laurent Paris (2016S/S) /
Inner : Yohji Yamamoto Pour Homme (2002S/S)
There is a big difference in elegance emitted between a regular vintage clothing, and designer items that have been given a vintage touch. An outfit consisting entirely of vintage items may make a classic styling, but an outfit featuring vintage-looking designer items somehow presents a more modern impression. An exemplar styling is the combination of this Martin Margiela biker jacket from 2004 A/W, a denim best by Saint Laurent for from 2016 S/S, and a patterned shirt by Yohji Yamamoto Pour Homme from 2002 S/S. We went for a rather rock taste since we have high hopes that the comeback of Hedi Slimane will again bring rock-inspired styling into the spotlight. We do not know yet for sure, but another part of enjoying fashion is to go ahead of our time.
