Yasushi Nakano of ANSNAM has created a new brand called "I am dork" with Takashi Okano of "For flowers of romance" as the designer, and Nakano is overseeing the production aspects such as patterns and materials. The collection was created with the image of skaters in the 90s in mind, and reinterprets the casual items worn by street boys at the time, such as those seen in Larry Clark's movie "KIDS," from the perspective of Okano, who was once a skater himself, and creates new values by raising them to the highest quality.

Late arrival this season.
We would like to introduce I AM DORK for AW25.
This time we have the classic viscose shirt. We will introduce the pants and outerwear at a later date.

For those seeing it for the first time, let's start with the shape.

The name is HIDDEN BUTTON SHIRTS.

Judging from the name, it seems to be a pretty fly-front shirt, but the front is the same as a regular shirt.

Therefore, it looks like a regular collar shirt.

However, there is a hidden button on the underside of the collar that can be fastened with a loop.

For more about the atmosphere, please see my previous blog.

There are two types of fabrics available this time.
Both products this time are from LYRIA, Italy.

100% viscose. A type of rayon. The oldest natural synthetic fiber.
It is often used as a substitute for silk in suits and dresses from fashion houses.
It's also slippery, so you can wear it over a sweatshirt or hoodie.

It has the beautiful drape that is unique to viscose and a glossy, elegant texture.

This precious fabric is then turned into a large shirt like that worn by skaters.
The finishing touches are Ansunam's perfect stitching and parts, which is what makes this shirt so appealing.

This season's checks also have a good balance.

This would make a strong impression on fabrics like cotton or wool,
It's viscose, so it feels a nice bit different.

Although the shape is large, it is a beautiful shape, so the overall balance is complete.

This orange check is also nice.

A check pattern that is not too flashy, yet can easily become the focal point of your outfit.

In autumn and winter, when we tend to wear dark colors from head to toe, it's useful to have a shirt in a bright color like this.

The fabric is smooth and can be worn over sweatshirts and knitwear, making it suitable for all seasons.

We received many questions about this in the spring and summer as well, but viscose is a unique fabric and people tend to think it is difficult to handle, but all you have to do is put it in a laundry net, wash it, and then hang it out to dry.

It will be wrinkled when you first wash it, but if you hang it out to dry in the shade, it will stretch out under its own weight. You can enjoy the wrinkled look as it is.
The orange mix had some wrinkles when it was delivered, so we have intentionally left all but the creases from folding.

To give it a more dress shirt feel, we recommend using a steam iron.

The fabric has a rugged check that gives it an American feel, but also a dressy, fashionable feel.
This shirt is perfect for our store's concept.

Once you try it on, you'll be hooked and will definitely want to buy it in multiple colors.

Please try it at the store.

thank you.
