South Korean contemporary label IISE offers a look into its Spring/Summer 2018 offering and the designs boast timeless unisex silhouettes. Among the trench coats, the sporty track jackets with subtle hits of color, the essential tees and the track bottoms, 'Collection 006' is curated around and "echoes the balance and symmetry of traditional Korean furniture."
The choice in color is abundant, yet simplistic. Navy, black, white, black and beige reoccur in the designs of the timeless unisex clothing, only to be met by subtle detailing of red, burgundy and green. IISE used high quality materials in the making of its sporty, yet sophisticated streetwear, including premium linen and locally sourced materials.
While the simplicity in the timeless unisex silhouettes offers versatility in terms of outfit curation, the ageless style makes it a good option for any outing.
