Sukezane“Thick-wale corduroy changes its impression dramatically just by altering the color, so I also like deep shades like this. Pay attention to the vintage-inspired details, such as the wider belt loops and the tab on the hip pocket. This applies to flares in general, but it’s best to pair them with either a wide belt or an extremely thin one. I think styling that plays with balance really stands out.”

A charming accent of tabs and buttons at the center back of the belt and on the right hip pocket. While it has a casual five-pocket design, this is a pair to be worn with a prominent center pleat. ¥105,000* (reference color/scheduled price). Shoes ¥159,000* (scheduled price) (PRADA / PRADA JAPAN CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIPS 0120-559-914).
