~Masterpiece French Work Blouse~

 

Good evening. This is Uemura from WEST.

 

Today, I'd like to introduce a masterpiece from "The 2Monkeys"...

the French Work Blouse.

 

The 2 Monkeys French Work Blouse【TM02454】

 

 

 

This is Blue Black.

While it's a bluish black,

this faded color

further enhances the atmosphere.

 

 

 

 

And this is Tobacco.

This earthy color,

in the sense of an earth tone, might be

an easy color for everyone to match.

 

Similar to Blue Black, the faded look of

Tobacco also creates a nice atmosphere.

 

Now, this French Work Blouse, which became available for pre-order at 12 PM today,

I'd like to introduce it in my own way.

 

First, the pleats on the front.

 

Jelado's 406XX

 

and 407EXX

have two pleats, but

 

The 2Monkeys

French Work Blouse

has this many pleats.

 

This French Work Blouse is so labor-intensive that three factories refused to make it.

 

Designer Rikiya Suzuki's attention to detail

doesn't stop there.

 

This product has pockets, but

they are not visible from the front.

 

Pockets are located

along the straight line from both armpits to the hem.

If pockets were placed on the front,

they would be seen as a design element, so

they are placed in an invisible location to maintain a simple look.

 

 

 

 

 

The French detail "gathers"

can be seen on the cuffs, back yoke, and above the waistband.

 

There is also a cinch back above the waistband.

 

You can see gathers

on the back yoke as well, right?

The fabric for the back body is cut quite generously.

This is a key point.

 

Linen is currently a high-priced material,

and this luxurious linen

is used generously.

 

Finally, regarding this product...

Some customers might think, "Is this a jacket?"

However, this is a blouse.

 

The reason is as follows.

 

The 2Monkeys

 

406XX

Pay attention to the buttonholes.

While the 406XX (and also the 407EXX) have horizontal buttonholes,

the French Work Blouse has vertical buttonholes.

This is the key point that classifies it as a blouse.

 

The shirts you all wear probably also have

vertical buttonholes.

Considering this, it's correct to call it a shirt, not a jacket.

 

The French Work Blouse, a thick fabric made of 100% linen.

 

We want everyone to experience the comfort and

aging process unique to 100% linen, so

if you're interested, please make a reservation.

Thank you all very much.
