just walked past Floraison Fashion Shop in Aoi Ku, Shizuoka City yesterday and noticed a new mannequin in the front window!

Can you see it?

That’s the one!
It certainly looked elegant but also very comfortable. I just had to investigate!

Here we are: Front first!

Next back!
Now, let me describe the whole apparel!

Cardigan by ILIAN LOEB (Japanese designer) in Alpaca, Nylon and wool.
Long enough to use as a one- piece together with a long white shirt/blouse by Frank & Eileen (US designer) made of cotton.
Wearing black thick tights means you do not have tp wear anything and be able to show your nice legs even in winter!

Beautiful light but warm and comfortable stole by MUVEIL (Japanese designer) made of wool!

Long leather boots by Lepepe (Italian designer)!

For a view of the zipper.
Note the low heels for easy walking!

HIGHOCTANE/HAIOKU by Nick Itoh in Shizuoka City

As I mentioned before, Japanese ladies have always liked plain and uniform colors, especially black, grey and beige, once they had passed to the age of adults, meaning married or career ladies.
It is not easy to embellish the female body with such requisites and it does require some talent and combinations as a single style or creator is not always the ideal solution!

Yesterday I noticed this outfit in the shop window of my good friend’s boutique, Floraison, in Shizuoka City.
I was intrigued and inquired once again with the staff who are also good friends!

For a back view first!

Very interesting knit, elegant but warm with pockets for the hands in case of a sudden chill.
Created by ILIAN LOEB (Japanese Company), 100% wool.

The very light but warm miniskirt includes a black extension (you can see only half of it on the above picture) covering the stomach to keep it warm with the minimum of fuss.
Created by noeud (Japanese Company)
Wool + Acryl + Nylon + Polyester +Alpaca + Baby Alpaca.

FLORAISON

High-heeled Bottines by SEE BY CHLOE (CHLOE’S second Line/Brand-France).
Very elegant but still practical against the cold.
All leather.
