Summer ease: Earth-dyed, genderless style—for the wanderer who finds poetry in texture and time


The Clay Dye Black Pants aren’t just clothes—they’re a tactile ode to slow craftsmanship. Light as a sun-warmed breeze, yet grounded like the earth they’re dyed in. They live in the tension between utility and artistry—where comfort meets intention. In a world of mass-produced fashion, their hand-dyed, mineral-rich hue feels like a page from a Wabi-Sabi manifesto—imperfect, organic, quietly profound. For those who collect moments, not trends—whose closet is a capsule of intentional pieces, each infused with memory.

A boy stands on a wooden floor against a white wall, wearing Clay Dye Black pants with a short-sleeved black shirt, a black hat, and round John Lennon-style sunglasses. Outfit completed with checkered socks and sneakers.

The artistry of dye: Rustic, fluid, made to move


True ease isn’t careless—it’s considered. These pants drape like well-worn travel sketches: relaxed where they should flow, structured where they must hold—textured, earthy, undeniably alive.

  • The clay-black hue: Not a flat black, but a living shade—like charcoal rubbed with fingertips, or the shadow of a summer storm cloud.
  • The wide silhouette: Freedom without bulk—a cut that swings with your stride, whether you’re biking to a café or lounging on a veranda.
  • The elasticated waist: No stiff buttons, just soft give—like the waistband of well-loved pyjamas, but tailored for the world.
  • The hand-dyed finish: Each pair bears the marks of its making—subtle variations, like the grain of handmade paper. No two are alike.
  • The under-knee length: Cropped for bare ankles, barefoot moments, or rolled cuffs—summer’s unofficial uniform.

The Clay Dye Black Pants: Wear them like a second-skin


These pants are for the soul who reads The Sound of the Mountain in the countryside, a folded train schedule in their back pocket—for the minimalist who knows depth lies in simplicity.

  • For the seaside café: Paired with a slouchy tank and sandals, salt still clinging to your skin.
  • For the urban wander: Tucked into a crisp oversized shirt, sleeves rolled, keys jangling in the side pockets.
  • For the evening firepit: Layered under a chunky knit, toes in the grass, a clay mug in hand.

For the modern humans who curate, not consume—whose wardrobe is a library of dog-eared favourites, each piece a chapter in their story.

Summer ease: A breezy, poetic escape—for free spirits who wear summer like a state of mind


The Floral Blouse by GoodNeighbors Shirts isn’t just clothing—it’s a sun-drenched pause, a sigh in fabric form. Light as a Lennon melody, yet textured like a well-travelled postcard from Japan. It lingers in the quiet tension between effortlessness and intention. In a world of stiff formality, its salt-shrunken cotton is a love letter to slow summers—soft, lived-in, impossible to resist.

A young man inspired by John Lennon leans casually against a white wooden wall. He wears a black hat, round tinted glasses, and the floral blouse by Goodneighbors Shirts: loose white cotton blouse with a black floral print. The outfit is paired with slim blue trousers and a black belt, evoking a vintage, bohemian style.

The poetry of ease: Unstudied, airy, effortlessly nostalgic


True style isn’t performative—it’s intuitive. This blouse moves like a Japanese wabi-sabi principle: perfectly imperfect, better with every wash—breathable, timeless, unfussy.

  • The floral print: Not saccharine, but a shadow-dappled motif. Like sunlight filtering through maple leaves or the inkblots of a half-remembered dream.
  • The relaxed fit: Generous where it skims the body, gentle at the shoulders—for lazy mornings and impromptu evening strolls alike.
  • The salt-shrunk texture: Each wear deepens its character, like a favourite paperback softened by salt air—uniquely yours with time.
  • The collar: Just crisp enough to frame the face, yet soft enough to roll up mid-adventure—a nod to nostalgia without the stiffness.
  • The cotton weave: Cool against the skin, forgiving in humidity—like a breeze through an open veranda.

Wear it like a summer state of mind


This blouse is for those who pack Mishima but read it poolside—for the wanderers who know the chicest thing you can wear is your own ease.

  • For the seaside lunch: Untucked over a striped bikini, hair salted, toes bare—a study in sunlit nonchalance.
  • For the city escape: Paired with wide-leg denim and clogs, sleeves rolled mid-forearm—utility meets romance.
  • For the golden hour: Buttoned unevenly over a slip dress, a single stem of lavender tucked into the pocket—careful carelessness.

For modern humans who curate, not consume—whose wardrobe is a library of dog-eared favourites, each piece a chapter in their story.

The Bow Tie Gathered Dress by Ujoh

Friday feeling: Delicate, quietly rebellious layering—for the dreamer who wears poetry between fragility and strength


The Bow Tie Gathered Dress by Ujoh isn’t just a garment—it’s a whispered sonnet in fabric. Light as a Mitski lyric, yet structured like a Louise Bourgeois sculpture. It exists in the space between fragility and strength. In a world of overwrought fashion, its sheer, wrinkled organdy is a breath of Virginia Woolf’s prose—subtle, textured, impossible to ignore.

A short black-haired model stands against a grey background wearing Ujoh's bow-tie gathered dress layered over a black top and black-and-white printed pants. She accessorizes with a black leather handbag.

The poetry of drape: Romantic, architectural, effortlessly layered


True elegance isn’t pristine—it’s alive. This dress flows like contemporary Japanese tailoring: fluid where it should bend, precise where it must hold—translucent, haunting, effortless.

• The grey hue: Not a flat monotone, but a shadow play—like fog at dawn—or the pages of a well-loved Tanizaki novel.
• The gathered shoulders: Soft pleats that frame collarbones like calligraphy strokes—adjustable, personal, never the same twice.
• The flared silhouette: Not volume for its own sake, but space for movement—a dress that dances when you do, even if only in your mind.
• The sheer organdy: Like tracing paper over a love letter, it invites layering—slip it over a turtleneck in winter, let it graze bare skin in summer.
• The bow tie: Not a fussy accessory, but a silent manifesto—femininity on your own terms.

Wear it like an elegant shield


This dress is for the woman who underlines Orlando in pencil but dog-ears Bonjour Tristesse—for the artist who knows restraint cuts deeper than excess.

• For the candlelit dinner: A slip dress underneath, like a whispered confession, paired with strappy heels—a study in contrasts.
• For the twilight rendezvous: Layered over a slim black turtleneck, bare legs, a single pearl earring—romanticism meets rigour.
• For the summer escape: Worn alone, with sand-dusted ankles and a straw hat—sheer enough to feel the breeze.

For modern humans who curate, not consume—whose wardrobe is a library of dog-eared favourites, each piece a chapter in their story.

The Curved Hem Tee by Ujoh

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Friday feeling — soft resistance in a world of sharp edges


The Curved Hem Tee by Ujoh: understated sophistication. Think of it as Miles Davis’ muted trumpet or the silence between two notes in a Sakamoto score—quiet, refined, and unapologetically intentional. This meaningful garment doesn’t shout. It listens. Then, it lingers.

Japanese minimalism: cut with nuance, it’s a garment for those who notice the details others miss. The asymmetry in front and back lengths feels like a breath held longer—an architectural pause that lets the fabric speak. In wisteria, the colour of faded florals and twilight musings — understated in a way only true sophistication dares to be.

Not basic. Essential


Minimal like a Donald Judd sculpture, but with the human softness that fashion often forgets.

• The curved hem: a subtle rebellion against symmetry, like a dancer stepping off tempo—grace in irregularity.
• The Supima cotton: whisper-soft, like parchment in a poet’s hands—crafted for closeness, for skin.
• The high-gauge knit: precision meets comfort—Mocrody texture that gently resists and yields, like a well-composed line of verse.
• The wisteria hue: neither lilac nor grey—it’s the colour of memory, of fog dissolving at dawn.

Wear it like a note played just right


This is not just a T-shirt: it’s a top-class essential. It’s the wearable version of a haiku. A pause in the noise. A breath between moments.

  • For the morning coffee run: Tucked into vintage denim, sleeves rolled—deliberate ease.
  • For the meeting where ideas bloom: Layered under a fluid blazer—soft power, reframed.
  • For the gallery visit or night walk: Paired with wide trousers and soft sneakers—quiet harmony in motion.

For the modern humans who curate, not consume. Whose wardrobe is a library of dog-eared favourites, each piece a chapter in their story.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

From Tokyo: Unisex fashion for modern humans


Meagratia has unveiled its FW25/26 collection film, A piece of nostalgia, during Rakuten Fashion Week Tokyo. As one of the standout brands in the Tokyo fashion scene, Meagratia continues to captivate with its unisex designs—timeless, innovative, and crafted for modern humans.

About Meagratia: Fashion from Japan


Founded in 2012 by Takafumi Sekine, Meagratia is a unisex brand built on the concept of “the fusion of history and present sense.” The brand’s designs reflect a worldview where the ephemeral beauty of a flower’s life is layered onto the evolving culture, environment, and human form shaped by time. Romantic, poetic, and subtly punk rock-inspired, Meagratia’s aesthetic is never loud but always delicate. A harmonious blend of past and present.

For the Autumn/Winter 2025 season, Meagratia unveiled its latest collection at Rakuten Fashion Week TOKYO on 17 March 2025. The event, accessible online, invited a global audience to experience the brand’s unique vision—where historical depth meets contemporary design.

A Piece of Nostalgia – Meagratia FW25/26: Watch the show

This season, designer Takafumi Sekine draws from the contacts and intersections that shaped his youth. Those moments when he first discovered fashion and found his inspiration. So, the collection reflects his current perspective, blending punk aesthetics and school-inspired influences that evoke memories of his student days.

Rooted in the vibrant energy of 1990s Harajuku, a place Sekine frequented in search of new experiences and creative inspiration, this collection is less about revisiting the past and more about expressing Sekine’s present identity as the designer behind Meagratia. It’s a bold statement of the “now,” where nostalgia meets modernity.

Meagratia FW25/26 – Final thoughts


In conclusion, Meagratia’s FW25/26 collection, A piece of Nostalgin, unveiled at Rakuten Fashion Week, reaffirms the brand’s unique approach to fashion. It masterfully blends a strong sense of the “now” with the warmth of nostalgia, creating a collection that feels both timely and timeless.

Indeed, we are captivated by its modern sensibility, where punk influences are expressed with delicate subtlety. And its commitment to unisex fashion, speaking to an audience that values design, craftsmanship, and vintage inspiration beyond gender boundaries. This is fashion rooted in a pure love for style.

Stay tuned—Meagratia’s FW25/26 collection will be available at suite123 Milano.
