BEAUTY: Clothing--Bed j.w. Ford

Bed j.w. Ford's founder Shinpei Yamagishi has always created clothing with a sense of elegance, even when they are casual. He is dedicated to the gesture of dressing and has said, "Today’s fashion is based on what celebrities wear. There is no beauty in that lifestyle, and no elegance."

The industry has pivoted hard this January toward men's suiting and tailoring, but taking that classic sense and doing something artful with it. Yamagishi's FW '26-'27 collection sown at Paris Fashion Week certainly had an elevated elegance, not into preciousness but into a realm of peculiar detail and individual style. Loose cut suits (or some based on a smoking jacket) drape down while blanket wraps rakishly flow off to the side, even on less formal looks that included jeans and an orange worker's jumpsuit. A very slim tie with gold chain fringe showed up at the neck  but also pinned to lapels. It all feels like following the rules while doing whatever you want...
