NEEDLES and ts(s) Team Up for a Dynamic Collaboration
Japanese fashion label NEEDLES has joined forces with fellow Japanese brand ts(s) to create a unique and eclectic collection. Known for their contemporary take on workwear and sportswear, ts(s) brings their expertise to the table, resulting in a concise yet dynamic capsule.
The collection features a variety of fabrics, each with its own distinct style and texture. This collaboration showcases an eclectic range of influences from both brands, resulting in a truly unique and eye-catching collection.
Military-Inspired Pieces with a Twist
NEEDLES’ signature military-inspired pieces, such as the “LINE CREW JACKET” and classic “HD PANT,” have been reimagined in Italian dobby cloth, giving them a three-dimensional texture. This unexpected twist adds a new level of interest to these already iconic pieces.
French Fabric with a Honeycomb Pattern
The “V NECK COWBOY SHIRT” and “STRING COWBOY PANT” feature French fabric with a repeating honeycomb pattern. These pieces are adorned with pearlescent buttons, a signature element of NEEDLES’ Western styles.
Classic Papillon Embroidery
The collection also includes two colorways of the “COLOR BLOCK POCKET T-SHIRT,” featuring NEEDLES’ classic papillon embroidery. This iconic design element adds a touch of whimsy to the collection.
Japanese Aesthetics at the Forefront
The design elements explored in this capsule collection reflect certain Japanese aesthetics, with a focus on reworked fabrics and repeating geometric patterns. These elements are often found in Japanese culture, particularly in paper and textiles.
Collaboration of Details
The smoky patchwork applications and indigo dobby cloth used in this collection are also featured in ts(s)’s SS25 collection. This highlights the synthesis of details from both partners, resulting in a cohesive and well-crafted collaboration.
