Pleats And Pockets Galore At Sacai Spring/Summer 2023
"Riffing on the notion of strength in elegance."
At Sacai's Spring/Summer 2023 runway show, pleats galore opened up a whole new exploration of house archetypes, from the tuxedo to tracksuits. Also center stage: pockets, meant to illustrate a nonchalant attitude and easy confidence, representing just how each wearer defines the attitude with which they carry themselves and suggesting new silhouettes based off hand/pocket positions.
Creative director Chitose Abe's fascination with blending couture construction and cool, laidback sensibilities was on full display throughout the collection, which you can scroll through below.
