After a few invigorating trips to Kinokuniya Bookstore, across from Bryant Park, I’ve developed a growing fixation with Japanese magazines. Stumbling across a feature on W Closet in Madame Figaro Japon, I needed to learn more about the affordable on-trend Japanese brand. W Closet extends their expertise in properly coordinating their pieces with sensible photography and models. The line for this winter, mixes and matches twills, tweeds, and wool – perfect for the weather we experiencing right now in New York.
Lengthy proportions are paired with petite, cropped outerwear offering an effective boyish look. They even share the heights of each model in the garments, so customers can gauge the type of fit they will encounter with each piece. Some of the looks are a bit unorthodox to the American eye but the style of the Tokyo-based brand is inviting and sweet – and beyond affordable. With the winter sale they have going on right now, prices range from ¥2490 to ¥6930 or $35 to $83 in US dollars. If you’re up for the cost of shipping by weight, they even ship to the Americas, Asia and Europe, too. Check out W Closet’s website, here and shop the winter sale, here. If you’re in Tokyo, check out W Closet’s retail store in Shibuya. And if you don’t have any overseas travel plans just yet, W Closet gives you the perfect reason to book a plane ticket now.
