[Thought process] From a visual standpoint, our 8th collection takes cues from its title 'Komorebi', referring to the dancing shadows cast by sunlight leaking through leaves. Yet upon closer inspection, the collection marks a notable shift in Vuja De's core ethos and design doctrine as a reflection and awareness of ordinary items and how we utilize the resources around us: an affinity with everyday objects. In particular, our product lineup this season reimagined bedcovers as wearable garments. We worked our way from the inside out, with significant attention first being placed on the fabrication and construction of the interior of each piece to maximize comfort and optimize the relationship between fabric and skin. Our Adonis coat is quite literally a blanket, as it is made in an unlined construction with soft and light cashmere melton fabric. It functions as a wrap coat, much like how one would wrap a blanket over themselves on a chilly night, yet it is also fully functional outdoors without subjecting any stress to the body. The Enzo hooded jacket and the Eva bomber were crafted in the same nature, whereby their linings are made from a cupro-linen blend - originally fabricated as a high-quality exterior shell - to replicate the texture of a freshly washed duvet. Without compromising on function, we ensured each design was discernible yet subtle. We have also incorporated the same concept within our pants for this season by using the aforementioned materials as pocket linings, developing expandable pleats to prevent fabric from bunching up when sitting, and infusing silicone with cotton to mimic the textures of tropical wool.
