Maharishi Draws Inspiration from Industrial Workwear
The latest collection for Fall/Winter 2023 by maharishi, led by Hardy Blechman, draws inspiration from the utilitarian and robust qualities of industrial workwear. Aptly titled 'An Exploration of Industrial Workwear,' the capsule continues the brand's innovative approach to military streetwear designs which has been established by recent collections like 'The Art of the Invisible Warrior.'
For 'An Exploration of Industrial Workwear,' maharishi's focus shifts to the uniforms worn by firefighters and construction workers in Japan, the U.S.A, and England. Emphasis falls both on form and material use with the brand harnessing the power of Pearl Weave Cotton, a fabric reminiscent of early Japanese firefighter kimonos. Elsewhere, the capsule pays homage to ukiyo-e, a Japanese art genre that flourished from the 17th through 19th centuries.
