Hello.
The rainy season has begun in the Kanto region.
June, and we are steadily making our way toward summer.

In light of the recent trend toward extreme heat, GEOFFREY B.SMALL, a designer who constantly confronts global environmental issues, made extensive use of summer fabrics titled “Superleggero” = “ultra-light” in the EV11 season. Here we introduce 2 items made from one of them: CIONI's Superlight Linen.

With its large horn buttons and single flap pocket, it might at first glance resemble a workwear-style shirt jacket. The front body, however, is cut on a three-dimensional pattern that falls into a natural drape from the top when worn, and together with the pleated cuffs, it draws a truly elegant silhouette.
The design of the large horn buttons and the single flap pocket at first glance gives the impression of a workwear-style shirt jacket, but regarding the tailoring of the front body, it features a three-dimensional pattern that creates natural drapes from the upper part when worn.
Combined with the pleated cuffs, it results in a shirt with a very elegant silhouette.



The back, by contrast, is simply made: a single panel with neither yoke nor pleats.
The body is cut slightly wide by design, and thanks to the lightness of the fabric, the extra volume falls into a natural drape that stirs up a breeze.
In contrast, the back body is simple, made of a single piece with neither a yoke nor pleats.
Structurally, the body width is slightly generous, and with the lightness of the fabric, the excess naturally forms drapes and creates movement with the wind.





As described above, a natural drape forms from the collar points, adding elegance to the whole look for an effortlessly refined impression.
As explained earlier, a natural drape is created from the tip of the collar, adding elegance overall and giving a refined, effortless impression.
