Ting Ting & Xia Wu – Japanese Music Festival Piece

Imagine you are going to a Japanese punk rock music festival. You already have your tickets and you are ready to meet up your friends, but you don’t know what you are going to wear. Designers Ting Ting and Xia Wu have designed a unisex overall dress in a Japanese street style that will fit in perfectly in this particular occasion. The first noticeable element of the entire garment is the neutral and dark color scheme. The top portion, the black t-shirt, embroidered with holes and parallel aligned safety pins presents a rebellious yet orderly behavior, greatly hinting toward the personality of the designers. Small minute details decorate the edge of the sleeves and collars which adds to the overall intricate craftsmanship of the piece. Inspired by the hippie style, the outer skirt portion, decorated with holes, rips, and folds brings the entire atmosphere into the 60’s and 70’s. Despite this outrageous look, the inner layers of the dress is composed of various blue collared shirts, though cut unevenly, still leads to a balanced overall look with the colors and styles.
