Undercover Jun Takahashi AW03 ‘Paper
Doll’ Occupational Therapy/REBELGODS Hybrid Wool Blazer
In Mens size M fits a Mens M
$850 aud | $610 usd
In incredible condition for its age, minimal print cracking, almost no fading on sweater fabric and all distressing is intentional.
From Undercover’s early Paris era AW2003 ‘Paper Doll’,
Features the heavy cut up and reconstructed design language that Jun Takahashi started exploring during the AW02 season, heavily focused on in AW03 and SS06 and later very minimally in SS11.
This particular piece focused more on the idea of blending two completely incompatible garments together, however I think the more casual sweaters and wool blazer actually blends together quite nicely. Since the colour palettes of the two garments complement each other, it actually is hard to spot the upcycled/hybrid nature of the blazer from a distance.
The Darkside of the Rebelgods graphic found on the back could be a potential reference to the book of the Church of the SubGenius, which is essentially a parody religion that is built around counterculture and attacking conformity and consumer culture, with the central belief being around slacking off and being free from expectations. (Again I could be wrong but it does align unusually well with Undercover’s mindset and especially this season too).
The Occupational Therapy is another recurring graphic that shows up in ‘Paper Doll’, I read it as therapy for the damage caused by by work/occupation, and slapping it on possibly the most work appropriate garment from this season may just be the most Undercover part about it.
Since only the front panels are made from parts of the wool blazer, and the rest being a soft and slightly elastic sweater, it is extremely comfy and warm. I could literally wear this to bed. Slightly relaxed fit.
