The collection is his curated wardrobe grounded in an eclectic dialogue between urban uniforms, sartorial classics and personal curiosities. The dynamic variances of these influences are threaded together and balanced with polish and ease cementing a personal style mantra - youthful elegance.

 

 

Each layer reveals classic silhouettes reimagined with a new proposal of purpose and pragmatism.  Timeless wardrobe essentials such as the moto jacket, denim jacket, and field jacket are modernized and recut in cotton poplin to be worn as 'shirts' for seasonless layering.

 

 

The unlikely pairing of styles and fabrics, with a cut-and-paste approach, results in new hybridized garments to address the modern paced global lifestyle.

 

 

 

Graphics and prints remain light hearted through vintage inspired Japanese Ukiyo-e style illustration, hand crochet and an injection of leopard motif invoking a sense of wit and humor.

 

 

 

3.1 PHILLIP LIM’s celebration of dressing the global citizen continues to push forth new possibilities in the modern menswear landscape.
