THE DENIM INTERIOR OF THE JACKET CARRIES AN ASYMMETRIC HIGH NECK WHEN FULLY CLOSED, WITH HIDDEN SIDE SEAM POCKETS. THE SCULPTURAL PATTERN OF THIS JACKET BECOMES THE FOCAL POINT OF THIS SIDE AS THE MATERIALITY IS MORE MINIMAL. THE JACKET CAN BE WORN FULLY BUTTONED UP OR WITH THE LAPEL FOLDED DOWN ON EITHER SIDE, SUGGESTING THAT THE INTERIOR OF THE JACKET ISN'T AS IT SEEMS.FOR THE JEANS, A HIDDEN FLAP CONSTRUCTION CONCEALED WITH FRENCH SEAMS CREATING AN ILLUSION IN THE MECHANICS OF THE CLOSURE TO BOTH THE WEARER AND THE OUTSIDE WORLD. A HIDDEN WAISTBAND THAT CONNECTS THE LEATHER SIDE OF THE JEANS TO THE DENIM ON THE REVERSE SIDE, OFFER A CLEAN TRANSITION BETWEEN THE TWO FACES OF THE GARMENT.

THE  EXTENDED SHOULDERS PUSH FORTH THE SHIELDED ARMOR CONCEPT, AND THE CAREFULLY PLACED RIVETS ARE REMINISCENT OF A PRESERVATION PROCESS UTILIZED IN DOCUMENTING WINGED INSECT SPECIMENS. THE BACK OF THE JACKET FEATURES AN ESTUARY SPINE CUTOUT THAT TRANSVERSES THROUGH A VEIL OF SHEER SILK ORGANZA, A CONNECTIVE TISSUE BETWEEN THE DENIM AND LAMB LEATHER.
