DESCENDANT

I may have mentioned this before. Maybe it's an old habit or something I do when I go abroad or even when watching movies and TV dramas, but I feel like finding my own value in seeing what people are wearing in these scenes.

I am fascinated by the clothes people wear on a daily basis, blending into the everyday scene, like students on their way home from school, coffee shop staff and chefs, on-site artisans and security guards. It's not something worn to show off, just something normal and simple.

When I create a LOOK using an item, sometimes I draw on that inspiration. Wouldn’t it be fun if we could share it?

If I wear this blazer, although it may appear standard, I would pair it with denim or chinos. If I add headwear to a brown shirt like the image on the top, I’d rather wear a navy or black beanie than a blue one.

However, when it comes to how to coordinate and purpose things, it tends to be boring if I only show my biased worldview. In some cases, it's too predictable and lacking. Even if the clothes are the same, the impression can be different depending on how they are presented and I believe it's good to represent various ways of wearing them that best suit each person.
I also believe that it is important to have such suggestions at DESCENDANT.
I don't think there is one correct answer and it should be used exactly as it is.
I also think that the most important thing is it to be worn by people.

There may also be homages depending on the item. The striped knit polo is like the one worn by Spider (played by Michael Imperioli) in Goodfellas at the club house and the tracksuit made of Tussah fabric is like the ones worn by Christopher Moltisanti from The Sopranos (also Imperioli.) (Laughs)
