In October 2022, I completed all the artwork for the Engineered Garments Fall/Winter 2023 collection. After that, I started working on the concept for the brand film of the collection with the theme "Heavy Duty Ivy Style." The Head Designer and President of the brand, Daiki Suzuki, went back to his roots in Classic American outdoor styles for this collection.
To create an endless loop that would project the style and mood of the atmosphere, I came up with a concept for a film that features portrait-style old American outdoor magazine covers from the 50s and 60s. This film aims to fully immerse the viewer in the ambient and allow them to enjoy the world of the brand.
