ARTS&SCIENCE Pleats

Slowly woven yak gabardine

Woven exclusively from undyed natural gray yak yarn on vintage shuttle looms, it brings out the fabric's inherent color and grain.

Tailored line and side details

Based on menswear tailored design, a single pleat is placed on the front and velvet ribbon tape is added to the side seams.

Relaxed fit and hem measurements

With a thigh width of 37cm across and a rise of 31.4cm for size 1, the fit is roomy, allowing for comfortable movement when worn.

Silk pleated tape on the neckline and cuffs

It is finished with silk pleated tape trimmed around the neckline and the cuffs at the sleeve ends.

100% silk plain weave fabric dried in the sun and flattened

Spun silk yarn is used for both warp and weft to weave in a plain weave, followed by a process of sun-drying and flattening.

Size 1 specifications with a width of 68.6cm

Based on size 1, it is made with a chest width of 68.6cm and a total length of 71.2cm, providing a fit that does not cling to the body.

Jacquard woven with different silk yarns

A jacquard fabric densely woven using distinct silk yarns for the warp and weft. The grain of the yarns forms a subtle diamond pattern on the base.

Pleated tape and velvet ribbon

Silk pleated tape trims the neckline and sleeve cuffs. The hem is finished with an added checkerboard pattern velvet ribbon along the edge.

A silhouette shaped by waist gathers

Gathered below the waistline, it flares naturally down to the hem. Falling loosely without clinging to the body, it is comfortable to wear.

Large box pleats on the front

Large box pleats are formed on the front to bring out three-dimensional volume and a relaxed fit.

Combination of silk and merino wool

Woven into a thin, lightweight georgette fabric using silk for the warp and New Zealand merino wool for the weft. The luster of silk and the cozy warmth of wool harmonize together.

Surface texture created by different twists

Threads with different twist directions are woven together to create a distinctive crisp touch and delicate surface texture.
