Lot. 204 Engineer Trousers - Ivory Paint
As an artist, Taiga Takahashi often wore a jumpsuit during his creative work, marked with whitish paint stains. Though accidental, these stains seem to reflect his minimalist aesthetic. In this T.T garment, we imagined him continuing his creative journey, leaving behind traces of his future presence.
Inspired by 18th-century work pants discovered in California, the redesign features a high-rise, wide silhouette from thigh to hem. Made from comfortably thick and textured katuragi (twill) fabric, the straight yarn creates a clean, defined twill pattern. The buttons and back pieces, marked with original engravings, are made of iron and left uncoated to develop a natural aged patina over time.
