Engineered Garments x BEAMS BOY Shoulder Vest & Wrap Skirt launches Nov 28 with a collaboration that blends utility detailing and playful layering across two key pieces. The collection features a reversible shoulder vest equipped with a removable strap for overwear styling, available in Black Velvet/Leopard Print and Navy Velvet/Polka Dot. Paired with the vest is a layerable wrap skirt made from the same material and styled with side slits for adaptable wear. The materials include cotton ripstop and nylon blends selected for durability and texture while the colour palette remains muted to enable subtle mix-and-match layering.
The capsule underscores the shared heritage of the two brands: Engineered Garments brings structured workwear and BEAMS BOY introduces a gender-fluid, context-shifting aesthetic. The release will be available through select BEAMS BOY stores and the brand’s website internationally.
