The FACETASM Spring/Summer 2013 collection features a modern take on a 90s grunge aesthetic. Making a splash at Tokyo Fashion Week, the label's designer Hiromichi Ochiai created his collection around the theme of "flavor." Inspired by pattern-clashing pairings, the designer's collection features a layering of opposing textures and unlikely textile combinations made from multi-tonal and vibrantly patterned garments.
Embracing eccentric elegance, the FACETASM Spring/Summer 2013 strays from traditional design ideals. From masculine skirts and silky trenches to an abundance of plaid prints, this 90s revival runway show features pieces designed with the modern male in mind.
Both comfortable and versatile, this edgy menswear collection marries bold and innovative design concepts with both a cool and wearability factor.
