Hello! I'm Haru, a fashion fanatic!
While Sota was changing the store display today,
I couldn't help but notice something.
While the shop was filled with outerwear until recently,
I feel like we're seeing more light layers like shirts
and items with textures perfect for SS.
Among them, one item in particular stood out,
catching my eye immediately,
so I'd like to talk about that piece today.
Let's get right into introducing the item.
IRENISA
-LACE KNITTING PULLOVER-
Bringing a sense of "ease" and "depth"
to your spring/summer styling,
this is the IRENISA lace knit pullover.
Its unique weave, which combines
polyester coil yarn and cotton yarn,
is its most defining feature.
Carefully knitted at a domestic knit factory,
the lace pattern possesses a solid presence
amidst its delicacy, creating a finish that
stands a cut above standard summer knits.
The slightly sheer texture is also appealing,
as it allows you to change the look
through layering with innerwear.
It's also highly recommended to add a touch of
variety to your styling just by wearing it over
a simple tank top or T-shirt!
Also, take note of the moderate fit—the
firmness unique to the ※coil yarn maintains
a beautiful silhouette without overly
emphasizing the lines of the body.
※ A "fancy yarn" (decorative yarn) made by winding
another thin thread in a coil (spiral) shape
at high density around a thin core thread.
With the texture of the lace and the unique
feel against the skin, IRENISA is a brand
that is incredibly particular about fabric.
When it comes to creating clothing,
most brands start with design sketches,
but IRENISA is a bit different.
IRENISA begins by creating the fabric itself,
never compromising until it is exactly as imagined.
The designer travels all over the country, visiting
factories to have detailed consultations
with the artisans.
They then draw inspiration from the
completed fabric to craft the clothing.
By bypassing the common process and using a method
that is unique to IRENISA, the resulting items
have "something" special about them.
By building things up from "0" rather than 1,
there is a passion you can feel that is
different at its very core.
I believe you'll truly realize the quality of this item
once you touch it for yourself.
Of course, the design is equally refined.
The moderately wide boat neck creates
a sense of ease,
and the cropped length acts as an accent
that sharpens the overall balance.
It goes well with wide pants or denim,
and its simple yet calculated silhouette
really stands out.
It works great as a centerpiece on its own,
and looks fantastic as an inner layer for a jacket too!
Personally, I'd like to wear it with a white
tank top underneath so a bit of the layer
peeks out at the neck,
paired with shorts for the summer. Haha.
A summer knit from IRENISA that stands apart.
When you come to visit the pop up with ÖLEND
starting tomorrow, please be sure to try it on
in the store!
