Pas de Calais


We are so excited to be the first to carry the Japanese line pas de calais to the Northwest. pas de calais is an area in the northern region of France that the designer is inspired by and loves. Adding nostalgic essence to modern casual design, pas de calais creates a contemporary universe of natural materials. The color tones are also based on soft and natural sober shades: ecru, beige, khaki, white, gray, black etc. Through various techniques from traditional dyeing to highly advanced technology, they transform natural materials such as cotton, linen, silk into original textiles which come together in harmony to compose a extremely comfortable and wearable collection.

pas de calais has just shipped and their first delivery will arrive this Thursday. In the meantime, here is a quick look at their Spring 2012 collection:
