Classical Colors Inspired by Old Photographs


This collection began with a focus on the shoulder. From standard raglan silhouettes to designs that simply combine two squares, the collection explores various approaches to shoulder shapes and sleeve details.

The knitwear, a signature of Kikas's work, primarily uses a half-cardigan stitch to maintain its shape. The color palette, inspired by old Japanese photographs, centers on grays, browns, and wine reds. Playful elements include printed T-shirts featuring misprints from these vintage photos.
