a closer look: Engineered Garments

here's a look at the Fall/Winter 08' collection from Engineered Garments, as seen on Odin New York online store. I've been seeing a few pieces from the the F/W 08' line around and really liked the styling. Daiki Suzuki, the designer of the collection, has taken inspiration from "1920's and 30's coal miners, loggers, railroaders and construction workers, and how they lived their lives, specifically how wool tailored jackets and trousers were todays jeans and t-shirts." A very interesting approach to a line, and the outcome is one that I am really feeling. check Odinnewyork for more looks from the collection as well as a short interview with the designer.
