Hello! I'm Haru, a fashion geek!!
Today is all about KHOKI again.
It’s KHOKI!!
Now that all the 25AW KHOKI pieces are gone,
I’ve felt a huge reaction to their absence in the store, and my passion for KHOKI has been reignited.
It may not sell out instantly like ssstein,
but the stock is steadily disappearing bit by bit,
so I want to talk about it before it's all gone.
I introduced the cardigan yesterday,
but today I’m going to talk about an item
that I’ve been eagerly awaiting!
Without further ado, that item is...
KHOKI
-Asymmetric Shirt-
An asymmetric shirt characterized by its unique bodice design.
It's hard to tell from the LOOK, and to be honest,
it doesn't stand out as much as the set-ups
or other items.
In reality, we've received the most feedback in-store
about the denim and set-ups,
so the truth is that this shirt hasn't fully grabbed attention yet.
Admittedly, its impact is a bit more subtle than the other items,
but you can still feel that signature KHOKI aesthetic
to the fullest.
While retaining the essence of a shirt, which has a long history as a formal garment,
it is an item that could only be proposed for the 26SS season
by the KHOKI creation team, who deeply love
second-hand and vintage clothing.
While shirts are usually considered beautiful when they are wrinkle-free,
this shirt evokes a charm similar to the natural wear-marks that develop over years of use, rather than just wrinkles.
The fabric uses a material that is as soft and gentle on the skin as gauze,
and post-processing has been used to draw out a plump texture,
creating a light and natural drape.
If you didn't tell someone this was KHOKI,
it would be no surprise if they thought it was a vintage shirt; that’s how well the depth has been recreated.
This is only possible because KHOKI knows clothing inside and out—
they’ve elevated the very feel of the processing into a design element.
Moreover, they didn't just stop at making a "vintage-looking" shirt;
they've also added gimmicks that only a contemporary brand can pull off!
You can wear it like a traditional shirt, but
there is a feature where you can fasten the left side to the buttons on the right,
which creates a relaxed, skipper-shirt-style front design.
I mentioned earlier that this is an item only possible for 26SS,
but when worn in the skipper style,
the open neckline creates a mature allure,
and that sense of ease is perfect for the warm spring and summer, rather than the cold autumn and winter!
Conversely, you could also layer a colorful inner piece
to add an accent to the styling.
The right side features a subtle detail reminiscent of a leather belt.
Furthermore, by incorporating gathers at the waist,
it achieves an asymmetric balance where the left and right sides have different expressions.
Man, this is a must-buy, haha.
I’m planning to buy it next month!!
Have you all decided what you’re buying yet?
Please check this out as a top contender!
