Travel & Safari were key concepts for Engineered Garments SS 2015 collection. Head designer of brand Daiki Suzuki mentioned me 1996 film "The English Patient" and British military influenced garments. From there, I started concept making for the short film. I came up with a concept of a mix of British LRDG (Long Range Desert Group), And Homage of 70-80's outdoor brand catalog images.
