Military elements were key to designer Chitose Abe’s spring 2015 collection for her label Sacai. In this look, she has taken the horizontal “Breton” stripes of the French Navy and combined them with lace, a juxtaposition that both highlights and challenges the masculine and feminine qualities of each material.
