“Pacific Style”
Goes Deep
Tokyo, Seoul and Los Angeles are the style spots making the clothes we want to wear now
While a lot of attention is paid to locales like New York, Paris and Milan when it comes to fashion, the team at MR PORTER says that right now, they're much more interested in the cities with ties to the Pacific Ocean. “While they might be classed as outsiders according to the industry's Eurocentric worldview, two cities in particular, Tokyo and Los Angeles, are having a growing influence over the way we dress.” Of course, these spots are not exactly overlooked, but they could definitely do with a little more exposure. From Cali brand CHERRY LA and Seoul streetwear brand thisisneverthat, to the Japanese jewelry designer that's been crafting unique pieces from unconventional materials for 25 years, here are six items to consider adding to your end-of-summer wardrobe that will easily transition into fall.
Your Laidback Summer Style
Leopard-Print
Track Jacket
Water-repellent and wrinkle-resistant, this track jacket is ready for anything. It's patterned with Wacko Maria's trademark leopard spots and embroidered with the brand's name along with collaborator Gramicci's logo.

Washed Linen Shirt
Like the perfect vintage shirt, only brand new. This Western-style isn't flannel—it's made from breathable linen that's been stone-washed to create a soft handle that's usually only achieved after years of wear.

South Korea's answer to Supreme, this streetwear label cut their workwear pants from durable cotton-canvas in a straight-leg fit that is reinforced with riveted panels on the legs.
