The inspiration for this oversized sweater comes from Japanese woodcuts, reflected in the flowing, contrasting fields of colour – like a sea in motion: shimmering, foaming and dancing – hence the name Umi, the Japanese word for sea. The shape of the sweater is inspired by traditional Japanese design, with a simple and spacious cut. Like a warm embrace, it can be worn on cool summer days – perhaps for a trip out on the sea, or simply out into the blue.
