Today, we would like to introduce a tweed gown styling that becomes the main piece for autumn and winter from KLASICA, available at FASCINATE_THE R (Osaka, Shinsaibashi).
In this blog, we will thoroughly unravel the KLASICA items, which pursue excellence in material texture, silhouette, and details, so we hope you stay with us until the end.

A gown coat that exudes overwhelming presence just by throwing it on

A gown coat from KLASICA that elevates any outfit with just a simple throw-on, crafted from a jaggy fabric with an expressive texture.

At first glance, it features a relaxed and roomy oversized silhouette, but the attention to detail throughout makes it unmistakably a KLASICA piece.
The inspiration behind this coat comes from an old French military hospital gown.
While inheriting the rugged yet functional details unique to military garments, it has been refined with KLASICA’s sophisticated interpretation, successfully transforming it into a piece of contemporary fashion.
Despite its oversized and relaxed sizing, the military essence prevents it from looking sloppy, instead giving it a polished and refined appearance.
Just by throwing it on, it becomes the star of the styling — this overwhelming presence is the greatest charm of the coat. Even when paired with a simple inner layer, it instantly creates a deeply atmospheric and expressive look.

The classical elements that form the base of the design are expressed through the cut-off finish applied to all hems, including the cuffs and edges.
Additionally, the unique frayed detailing seen throughout — a signature expression of this season — creates a distinctive identity unlike conventional gown coats.
Furthermore, features such as the prominent large lapels and the subtle patchwork at the back neckline reveal the meticulous craftsmanship embedded in every detail.
By fastening the included waist belt, you can enjoy a transformation from a wide silhouette to a more sculpted, three-dimensional shape.
The pursuit of quality is evident down to the smallest elements — natural nut buttons are used, and the lining features smooth black cotton and cupro.
Inner pockets are provided on both sides, ensuring practicality as well.

The silhouette is a boxy wide shape.
It strikes a balance between comfortable wearability and a classic-modern mood. The moment you put it on, the moderate weight and the rich shadows created by the high-quality jaggy fabric wrap you in KLASICA’s unmistakable atmosphere.
The generous volume and material expression are in perfect harmony, giving the wide silhouette a composed and tightened overall impression. Thanks to the roomy sizing, even when layering thick knits or sweatshirts underneath, the silhouette remains intact and comfortable without losing its shape.

What supports the overwhelming presence of this gown coat is its unparalleled material expression.
The fabric is a wool blend that reinterprets the familiar “Kenpi tweed” material, well-known among vintage enthusiasts, through KLASICA’s unique lens.
By intentionally lowering the yarn count, it expresses the rustic and coarse texture characteristic of Kenpi fabrics.
This rough and raw texture, combined with its deep, complex coloration, gives the coat its dignified presence.
What’s worth noting is the way it evolves over time.
At first, it may feel slightly rough, but as you wear it, it gradually adapts to the body and becomes softer — this transformation is one of the material’s greatest charms.
Additionally, garment wash processing is applied during production, giving it a soft texture and an authentically worn-in look from the start.
Please enjoy the unique aging process as it becomes your own.

For the inner layer beneath this statement coat, a KLASICA cotton shirt with a vintage feel is selected.
The bold neck design and classic box silhouette accentuate the presence of the coat while adding a refined mood.
Combining classical elements with modern expression and uncompromising quality, it is a piece crafted with attention to detail in every aspect.

To further deepen the character of this heavy coat style, eyewear from RIGARDS is introduced.
The round-frame design crafted from natural water buffalo horn is particularly striking.
The calm matte black color exudes an air of mature elegance.
The warmth and one-of-a-kind presence of horn material is one of its greatest charms.
While the overall finish is matte, certain parts such as the rim and the upper bridge are polished, and sharp edging is applied — resulting in a piece with a particularly strong personality, even among horn frames.

Wide Pants That Gain Even More Depth When Worn as a Set

For this styling, wide pants made from the same material are paired to fully bring out the charm of the gown coat.
These pants, which carry the same distinctive fabric texture as the coat, enhance the depth of the rough Kenpi tweed feel even further when worn as a set, creating a cohesive and impactful presence.
A notable feature is the drawstring at the waist. By intentionally letting the drawcord hang or changing the way it is tied, you can freely enjoy a layered style with a distinctive expression.
The silhouette, calculated to match the coat, maintains a polished impression despite its wide shape, and when worn together as a set, the classic-modern styling condensed with the brand’s worldview is completed.

While based on one of the brand's classic models, this pair features updates throughout.
The most defining characteristic is the relaxed-fit wide tapered silhouette. It pursues an exquisite balance that is neither too slim nor overly wide, giving a sharp impression despite being categorized as “wide.”
Compared to previous standard models, the silhouette is slightly narrower, and the taper is more gentle, making it even more versatile—not only with the featured gown coat but also with a wide range of styles.
Additionally, the hem design has been refined, with the hem button specification being made more compact.
As a result, the design is now simpler and more practical, making it easier to balance with footwear.
This calculated silhouette maintains the material’s charm while delivering a sophisticated impression even when worn as a set with the gown coat.

The material, just like the gown coat, is a wool-blend fabric that reinterprets Kenpi tweed in KLASICA’s unique way.
By lowering the yarn count, the rough texture and rustic feel unique to Kenpi fabric is expressed as-is in the pants.
When worn as a set, the material’s appeal is maximized.
Just like the coat, the pants also undergo a garment wash process, giving them a soft texture and a naturally worn-in look from the start.
Thanks to this exquisite material feel, they can be worn across a long season—from early autumn when the chill begins, all the way into spring—making them a highly versatile piece.

For footwear, the GUIDI “792X” derby shoes with a powerful double sole made from horse leather were selected.
The rounded toe and substantial sole deliver a classic presence.
Constructed using the durable Goodyear welt method, the horse leather develops a rugged patina as it is worn.
Adding substantial weight at the feet beneath wide pants tightens the overall styling and brings a sense of balance and stability to the look.
