The nonnative collection for the Fall/Winter 2019 season embraces an interesting form of inspiration. The Japanese label looked toward film, specifically with 80s origin. The offerings are an active celebration of "different sub-characters [...], particularly academics, technicians, and scientists."
This translates into the 2019 nonnative collection as minimalist elegance, marked by an aura of sophistication and timeless design. Aside from the dedication to producing aesthetically pleasing ensembles that can be styled and reinterpreted in many environments, the nonnative collection also has a flair for the functional. This is assured through the use of high-performance fabrics that gives the wearer peace of mind in demanding climates. For its Fall/Winter capsule, the contemporary label utilized well-regarded fabrics like GORE-TEX, POLARTEC, Pliantex, and Thermore insulation, guaranteeing protection from rain, as well as cold weather.
