Engineered Garments Spring/Summer 2009

The Spring 2009 collection from Engineered Garments has recently been previewed on their website. The lookbook in very well put together with great styling and wonderful pieces. I love the color pallet, lots of olive green, dark reds, navy blue and khaki done with great complimentary fabrics. Also, the usage of bold patterns and the matching tops and bottoms are a really interesting look. Once again Engineered Garments comes correct with a nice range of looks and pieces, making them one of my favorite lines at the moment. 

Engineered Garments duffle

This Engineered Garments duffle bag is my new favorite thing. I absolutely love this piece - from the color to the styling, it is amazing. The bag was featured on ACL along with a few other great pieces from the Japanese store MAPS. It is out of my reach and also budget right now, but until then I will keep dreaming about this perfect bag.

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.
