SS05 “History of the World” Denim Blouson w/ Extended Arms

Raf Simons SS05 Washed Denim Blouson w/ Extended Arms. “History of The World” was the title of the season followed by the iconic “History of My World” released in the following fall. At this point in time Simons shifted his focus from attitudes and slogans to undergoing a bold reshaping of menswear. Collection focuses on modern, suave, early 70’s german futurist cuts. This allows Raf to express his tailoring prowess and breath something new, but familiar to menswear, with some looks bordering near the sartorial. Silhouettes were precisely lean at top and wide at bottom, as with many seasons following until 2008 or so. There’s no doubt that Raf Simons shaped all facets, including his underrated later era of tailoring, of menswear. Mid section sits on waist. Long arms that are meant to go past wrists. Zip pockets. Arm flap pocket on left arm.

8.5/10 condition. Size 52 and fits true.
