-What are the key points of styling?
The silhouette of the jacket is a little loose, so it is more relaxed than tight. Therefore, I used a tank top as an inner layer and wore the jacket loosely over it. However, if I chose pants with a relaxed feel, the whole look would be too loose, so I chose slacks for the pants and boots for the shoes to tie the whole look together. The gap in taste between the jacket and the pants is the key point.
-Do you have any personal rules for wearing single jackets?
I usually wear a single jacket, but I don't feel comfortable wearing it like a dress, so I try to create a point of disruption by pairing it with thick denim or wearing a BB cap.
-What is the point of the jacket you wore today?
The large width of the body makes it easy to wear. It is made of virgin wool, which gives it a seasonal feel. The length is short compared to the width, which I like.
Mr. Wada says he loves the shorter length of the jacket. The sleeves are set longer than the length of the jacket, so it is also worth noting that the sleeves are rolled up. The pants also have an interesting high-waisted, tucked-in bon-ton (shaped student pants) detail. Black boots on the feet tie the whole look together.
