SACAI MEN'S S/S 2016

The new Sacai men’s collection offers a mismatch of textures, colors and patterns, inspired by Paradise Garage, the legendary New York disco, where people of different nationalities and sexual orientations mingled and partied hard in the Eighties. To wit, Sacai designer Chitose Abe produced a strong mash-up of her signature aesthetic with different references of time and gender. They include tropical printed Bermudas, striped T-shirts, checked stadium jackets and low-crotch pants to the simplest white T-shirts. Abe’s mash-up of genres, styles, influences and textures looks best when tossed together with a relaxed, grungy and off-kilter personality.
