Tokyo Fall 2019 Runway

Tae Ashida

The textured royal purple overcoat, anorak, and jeans worn by male model Chris Darton encapsulated Ashida’s vision for men with a look that was colorful, streetwise, and steeped in luxury. After seasons of having male friends and acquaintances inquire about pieces they might wear, she decided it was time to expand her horizons. “When I looked at them, I could picture them wearing the exact pieces they were inquiring about, so I thought, Why not?” she said. “I don’t have to make business suits; guys can wear anything.” This being look 1 really captivated me and quickly became my favorite look. I think the overcoat should be coming back with some resurgence. I say coming back due to the fact that fashion is always being recycled. I mean that literally and figuratively. I hope to see more styles and variations of overcoats being rocked all throughout 2020. Take a look at European and Asian fashion during the fall and winter months.They are doing it right over there.
