Shearling Outerwear Enjoyed Through Skillful Paneling



LIVEN

This season, the women's collection at JOURNAL STANDARD Omotesando proposes a grunge-mix style based on men's silhouettes, offering simple yet varied lengths and sizes. Perfect for this styling are the outerwear pieces from LIVEN, exuding a sophisticated and cool impression.

LIVEN is an Italian factory brand established in 1959. In 2013, it launched a new collection, leveraging the high-level techniques and premium leather cultivated over the years.

WOMENS | Crafted from the finest shearling, this coat features a sharp and elegant design. Its beauty is evident in the meticulously calculated details, such as the slim silhouette and sleeve paneling.

WOMENS | The contrast between materials like wool and shearling, and the color combination of blue and black, is striking. The design, inspired by a rider's jacket, is also unique.





Shearling and leather outerwear can sometimes appear too mature or rigid. In contrast, LIVEN creates sophisticated styles through exquisite balance, combining different materials, incorporating relaxed color palettes, and adopting on-trend sizing. Yet, even when paired with denim, these pieces maintain a chic versatility, avoiding overly casual looks.


Cashmere Stoles of British Tradition, Perfect for Gifting



JOHNSTONS

When it comes to accessories essential for layered knitwear or British-inspired outfits, stoles are paramount. JOURNAL STANDARD Omotesando highlights the stoles from JOHNSTONS, a venerable Scottish manufacturer.



JOURNAL STANDARD



For over 200 years, JOHNSTONS has been crafting scarves and home furnishings using high-quality materials such as cashmere, vicuña, lambswool, and camel hair. It remains one of the few manufacturers in Britain with an integrated production process, overseeing everything from raw material selection to spinning, weaving, and knitting.

The large-sized stoles, featuring the elegant sheen and smooth texture of premium cashmere, create ample volume with a single wrap. They can also be worn as a cape or used as a lap blanket, offering versatile use both indoors and outdoors.

These make an ideal gift for a loved one this season, as well as a treat for yourself.





Available in various styles, from traditional British tartan checks to solid colors that highlight the material's quality, these large stoles are perfect for adding a touch of sophistication to your winter wardrobe. Why not consider one for yourself?
