Wabi-sabi is a traditional Japanese view which focuses on the beauty found in imperfection and transience. It’s hard to define but it’s the kind of thing we’d use to describe pieces like this jacket from Australian-label
Song for the Mute. Rendered in two contrasting types of lustrous crepe, it’s shaped to a traditional workers jacket silhouette with pockets and waist adjusters, left unfinished with intentionally frayed edges. Pair with the matching trousers.
