The appeal of Japanese label [size=14][red]ATTACHMENT[/red][/size] lies in its simple architectural design philosophy that highlights the beautiful natural properties of the raw materials used.

[size=14][red]Kazuyuki Kumagai[/red][/size] launched his label, ATTACHMENT, in 1999, beginning to show it as part of Paris Men’s Fashion Week in 2006, quickly attracting stockists around the world, including Browns London, L’Eclaireur Paris and Lane Crawford Hong Kong. After graduating from fashion school, Kumagai learned about fabric production, and honed his skills in the atelier of inimitable Japanese designer Issey Miyake.

Kumagai has long worked with wool in his collections. Indeed, around 70% of the label’s fall/winter collection is comprised of the fiber.It was from the designer’s love for wool’s inspiring benefits that a collaboration with [size=14][red]The Woolmark Company[/red][/size] rose, resulting in a capsule collection crafted from Tasmanian Merino wool.

“[grey]Wool has infinite possibilities, and I believe that it’s still possible to create new types.[/grey]” said Kumagai. ATTACHMENT’s wool-rich capsule collection comprises 24 pieces, including thick wool melton coats, a specialty of the label, as well as wool flannel pants and knitwear in a neutral color palette of brown, beige, grey and black, all showcasing the beautiful texture of Merino wool.
