The most eye-catching feature of these pants is the grid pattern.
The three-dimensional effect of the woven pattern makes it more than just simple grid lines, which you would understand if you could see the fabric in person.
(Unfortunately, this is hard to convey in a photo.)
The grid fabric was apparently created with inspiration from the work of the Italian architectural group "SUPERSTUDIO," a name that's also in the item's title, specifically from their masterpieces, the Continuous Monument and Quaderna.
So, who was SUPERSTUDIO?
It was a group founded in 1966 by architectural students and young architects in Florence.
As a form of rebellious expression against the developed modernist architecture of the post-industrial revolution era, their representative works often incorporated inorganic grids.
Keywords symbolizing modernism include "rationalization" and "mass production."
I feel that the ironic expression of deliberately incorporating inorganic grid lines as an organic woven pattern is connected to the activities of the inspiring source, SUPERSTUDIO. (This is just my personal opinion.)
The group feared that the spread of modernist architecture and the pursuit of rationalization would lead to a loss of "human richness," which is what led to their oppositional expressions.
By getting to know a little about architecture from Dhal's artistic side, and seeing this kind of expression in fashion, I feel like I've taken a step forward as a person while writing this journal entry.
