Side Slope Cardigans by Hiroki Wakisaka
It’s summer here in the third world (spring in the northern hemisphere) and these statement-making bright, colourful cardigans by Side Slope are calling my name. I’d wear them with khaki shorts, perhaps a tank or a shirt underneath and a big ol’ granny necklace and voila, the look is soo me. You can even wear something fantastic like a beige Burberry trench on top of it.
Red v-neck cardigan and blue v-neck cardigan, £365 both from Oki-ni.
The wooden buttons are a nice personal touch, no?
Side Slope is a Milan-based Japanese brand founded by Hiroki Wakisaka in 2005. Wakisaka is passionate about knits, placing emphasis on craftsmanship and technical skill. They even own their workshops.
Alas, these beautiful and unique cotton knit cardigans don’t come easy on the pocket.
Approx. US$550 each is the price to pay for something that special.

These are amazing! This is a great example of where art and fashion collide. J’adore.
Love the colours. But they really remind me of the ones designed by Diesel for AW09.

None-the-less, they look hot! :)
Fantastic colours! I used to look to Missoni & Christian Lacroix for my knitwear – I may try to see more of this new brand before buying another item.

They are so pretty! I wish Malaysia would start having random outfit runway shows of clothes like these. But there seems to be a lack, or I’ve just been living under a rock all this time.
just the greatest cardigans i’ve seen so far!
Thanks for the tip!
The green and blue is screaming my name~
This would look great over a skimpy silver bathing suit and a lucite necklace.
Awesome cardigans. Love them.
BB, you should do a formspring acct! Or do you have one already?
