The Breton stripe, reimagined
The OSAKA draws on the graphic codes of the Breton stripe and translates them into a softer, more feminine silhouette.
Its generous volume through the upper body creates fluidity, while the slightly tapered waistline reshapes the silhouette. The dropped three-quarter sleeves enhance this relaxed effect and delicately reveal the wrists.
The V-neck opens up the neckline and balances the proportions of the design.
Worn open over a T-shirt or camisole, the OSAKA takes on the look of a relaxed little cardigan. Buttoned up, it can be worn almost like a jumper and fully showcases its Breton stripe pattern.
Craftsmanship
The 2-ply cashmere offers an ideal balance of fineness, softness and lightness. Here, it retains a supple knit, perfectly suited to the OSAKA’s volume and its role as a transitional-season piece.
Creating the Breton stripe pattern requires great precision to preserve the continuity and balance of the stripes across the different parts of the garment.
The construction of the fit also plays an essential role: the volume is deliberately more generous through the upper body before gradually tapering at the waist. This play on proportions gives the design character without losing the fluidity inherent in a fine knit.
A transitional-season essential
With white jeans, wide-leg trousers or a skirt, the OSAKA instantly adds a graphic touch to the silhouette.
Its lightweight 2-ply cashmere, ideal for transitional temperatures, its Breton stripe pattern and its original fit make it a piece to return to season after season.
A contemporary interpretation of a great classic, combining nautical spirit, the softness of cashmere and relaxed elegance.
