Fuzzy knit wool sweater from Comme des Garçons Homme Plus, Autumn/Winter 1995. The blue wool and nylon blend is simply marvellous, easily one of the most beautiful shades of blue that I have seen and as soft as it can be. Although it might not be clear from the pictures, the surface is quite "hairy", with long fluffy treads all over the surface. The fit is a bit tight around the torso and shoulders (which is the only reason why I am selling it, as I have broad shoulders), but the bottom of the sweater and the end of the sleeves are all wider than their upper part, resulting in an amazing and unique look. It is in perfect condition.
Relaxation, freedom, peace, comfort, and liberation formed the core of this Homme Plus collection, expressing the theme of "SLEEP". The invitation cards had "ZZZ" printed on them to represent the subject. Pieces of clothing similar to shapeless pajamas and gowns, comfortable knitted dresses, striped shirts, etc., conveying the theme's imagery, were worn by characteristic models. The main fabrics used were carded wool flannel, felt, and resin-processed tweed.
