A select store that proposes new fashions while mixing a refined, sharp atmosphere with traditional tastes.nano・universeThe brand is a leading brand in the fashion industry in Japan. Throughout the season, a variety of special order items and original items are released.
In this page, stylists, who are "fashion professionals," examine the items and suggest how to wear them in order to get to the bottom of the items' deep appeal. So far, three stylists have appeared in this project for spring/summer 2019. The last one to appear in the last month is Daisuke Araki.

The original "washable knit" item with long and short sleeves was popular when it was released this season. A short-sleeved version will be introduced for the coming summer.
As the name suggests, this knitwear is washable, which is a major point. The secret lies in its outstanding strength, which is created by filling the knit as finely as possible. Not only is it machine washable, but it will not wear out even after repeated wear.
The concept behind the production of original items by "Nano Universe" is to create "stress-free clothing. In fact, there are many families who want to wear knitwear, but are stopped by their wives, who are in charge of the household budget, because they cannot put the knitwear in the washing machine or have to pay for dry-cleaning. Hence, these "washable knitwear" in long and three-quarter sleeves seem to have recorded strong sales as soon as they went on sale.
T-shirts are too casual, for better or worse. But this is an item that feels like something between a knit and a cut-and-sew. If you want to aim for high-quality styling, short sleeves of knitwear will bring it all together in a classy way. In addition to the plain type, you can also try a border type for a summery look," says Araki. Just by switching from your usual cut-and-sew to knitwear, you can completely change your impression.
This summer-spec "washable knit" is packed with utility and functionality that will be great for the coming season. Since size shortages seem to occur quickly, it may be a good idea to stock up on a few pieces in preparation for the full-blown summer season.
