NUMBER ONE HUNDRED & TWENTY FOUR.
November25
With weather in Sydney finally feeling like summer should, there’s been a leaning in my wardrobe towards a nautical, almost Hamptons yacht club, theme. Just this Tuesday a friend and I raided the treasure trove of op shops that exist on the Central Coast, and I was particularly pleased to come home with a pair of polo Ralph Lauren chinos for six dollars!
All that serves as an introduction to the S/S11 collection of CREEP by Hiroshi Iwai. Everything about these items sings for me, from the bandana adorned outfits paired with soft-toned bucks, the high contrast color items juxtaposed against peaceful autumn tints, to the elaborate patterns, clean cuffs, and excellent outerwear. CREEP is described as a line which combines innovative Japanese design with a passion for the simple beauty of functional American workwear. To me, that’s a marriage that is working splendidly.
