The sacai Fall/Winter 2013 Collection makes for another astute instalment from Japanese designer Chitose Abe. Building on recent success, Abe has taken the long road to get to this point but it has been worth the wait. Consisting of signature elements while throwing together different fabrics, colors, and textures with a gonzo, though practiced, hand. Tweeds, nylon, downs, silk, strong knitwear, combined with piled-on looks of field jacket, silk foulard-print pants, and fuzzy, lamb’s-fur, the outcome is very impressive.
