RUNWAY: Sacai FW17

We live in a digital world, one where each iteration of the next smartphone offers more and more pixels, creating an even more vivid picture. So, upon seeing Sacai's pixelated camouflage patterns, the collection's kitschy take on culture shined through. As did the Japanese label's collaboration with The North Face, a curious happenstance since Junya Watanabe offered a collaboration with the same brand yesterday. One would think that Watanabe or Sacai would secure an exclusivity contract, at the very least that no other label would offer a collaboration within the same fashion week and season. Nevertheless, Sacai's puffer offerings offered texture and a military inspiration so the two collaborations are quite different. The rest of the collection was a cacophony of layers and mixed fabrics to create chic layered looks.
