Misaki Kawai for P.A.M.
published on 17th November, 2011

P.A.M. have long admired Japanese artist Misaki Kawai. They say, “At first we just bought her zines for Someday store and from there we asked her if we could use her artwork for the collection we were developing.” She must have said, “Sure!” because if you have a look at their latest collection, ‘Wild Wild Life’, Misaki’s prints are all over it. Of particular note are these slippery silked-up pieces made from 100% Silk Spun Habotaithe.

Misaki Kuwai’s print of tigers, lions, parrots and crosses is spread across a royal blue and mustard yellow backdrop for three different designs: A pine cone layered dress, a full-length jumpsuit (Uma Thurman Kill Bill booya(!) kinda stylin’) and a singlet with buttons up top and a pocket band at the base.

Fittingly, this morning I found an old magazine with an article on wearing shiny clothes. It said, “The question must be asked – how does one enjoy wearing shiny clothes?” It’s simple. I put on the jumpsuit.
