{"title":"MOOD Special Stylings","description":"","products":[{"product_id":"mo-000360","title":"-SPECIAL- “HERMÈS” 90’s-00’s Trompe l’oeil cotton knit cardigan","description":"There is a stain near the second button.\n \nFrom HERMÈS, founded as a saddlery workshop, and continuing its sincere approach to materials and quiet elegance into the present, while its era-specific interpretations have imbued everyday wear with elegance, we present a standout piece with a constructed layered design reminiscent of the Martin Margiela period.\n \nThis piece takes a softly camel-colored cotton knit as its base, and by integrating the white collar and placket into one, it creates the depth of a polo shirt or shirt layered inside it in a single piece.\n \nThe body features a fine knit texture that sits smoothly against the skin, and because it is 100% cotton, it offers lightness and a natural drape, making it not appear heavy despite being knit, resulting in a balance that makes it easy to wear from early spring through to late autumn.\n \nWhat is particularly appealing is its trompe-l'œil-like construction that makes it appear as though a white-collared inner layer is layered under a V-neck cardigan; visually it evokes a classic layered style, yet it is actually designed to be self-contained in a single piece, minimizing bulk when worn, and within Hermès's refined neatness lies a quiet sense of incongruity reminiscent of the Margiela era.\n \nThe collar is tailored in a soft white tone, adding a sense of cleanliness around the face while the contrast with the camel body creates an elegant depth; the placket is designed to peek naturally from the inside of the knit, thereby establishing its design without increasing ornamentation—an intelligent construction, indeed.\n \nThe front features buttons in a subdued tone, maintaining a restrained presence that preserves the knit's soft expression; they allow adjusting the V-zone via opening and closing, making it easy to wear as an outer layer or as a top, and the ribbed hem and cuffs subtly cinch the silhouette, maintaining a calm yet elegant outline.\n \nOn the main label, the HERMÈS inscription with the carriage and footman logo is present, the size \"S\" is indicated at the top right, and the lower tag shows \"MADE IN ITALY\", indicating its background as Italian-made knitwear. Additionally, the care label lists Hermes Japon Co., Ltd. and the phone number 03-3569-3300; the absence of QR codes or RFID and other modern digital elements, and its strong resonance with the layering reconstructions and minimalist aesthetics observed during the Martin Margiela tenure from 1997 to 2003, strongly suggests it is an archive piece dating from around 1997–2004.\n \nThe value added by this piece lies in the fusion of Hermès's high-quality everyday wear with the Margiela-era's tendency to quietly shift the structure of clothing. Rather than obvious logos or flashy ornaments, its layering-like tailoring, color contrasts, and how the materials settle convey the garment's intellect; as an archive piece, it also naturally connects to modern quiet luxury, making it a rare presence.\n \nIt is especially recommended for those who find simply wearing a classic knit in a refined way insufficient, and who wish to bring an archive where the designer's philosophy quietly informs Hermès into daily life; with its unforced, relaxed stance, yet its structural intrigue instantly evident to the perceptive, it is a MOOD-rich, deeply meaningful special piece.\n \nStyling: By pairing with drapey slacks or a polished long skirt, the knit's softness and the refined quality of the collared design are naturally enhanced; wearing it under a wool jacket or a simple coat preserves the depth of a layered shirt, creating an elegant, intellectual impression regardless of gender. Avoid over-accessorizing the overall look; through the quality of the materials and the beauty of the construction, you can quietly set a refined tone—an item that embodies the depth unique to the HERMÈS archive.\n \nPlease take this opportunity.","brand":"HERMES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47963408335086,"sku":null,"price":128000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/2751\/1534\/files\/8DDEE115-E426-45C7-B9C4-0D20F583F112.jpg?v=1777476469"},{"product_id":"special07-3","title":"-SPECIAL- “LOEWE” 2010’s striped ribbon sleeve long gown coat","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrom LOEWE, founded in Spain in 1846 and rooted in leather-focused craftsmanship, and since Jonathan Anderson's appointment, the brand has fused artisanal warmth with a contemporary sense of play.
