The CIVILIZED Fall/Winter 2014 collection catalog is a dark and modern take on utilitarianism. The menswear collection features minimal and elegant tailoring that is juxtaposed with a range of apocalyptic face mask accessories.
Designer Satoshi Okugawa presents his latest showing in a dark and monochromatic catalog that features raw and high contrast portraits. These portraits reveal intricate tailoring, weather-proof fabrics and wearable cuts that are signature to the Japanese menswear label.
Whether shining a light on fabric-made face masks or face-covering hoods with open eye holes, the CIVILIZED Fall/Winter 2014 lookbook is the opposite of expected. The label's wearable and practical pieces are enhanced with a range of dark accessories that are reminiscent of apocalyptic sci-fi imagery.
