We hope you enjoy reading until the end!
About “LEVEE BLOUSE”
A jacquard blouse featuring a dropped shoulder design that accentuates a delicate frame. It’s a piece that offers a unique aura, blending elegance with a relaxed mood.
Shadows created by the panels and piping add an accent. You can wear it sharp for an on-duty look, or enjoy the balance of “effortless yet polished” on your days off.
It works perfectly as a setup with matching material, but is also highly versatile, pairing well with slim pants or denim for any occasion.
About“GLARE SLIT PANTS”
These pants incorporate sequin embroidery on the front, making them easy to incorporate into daily outfits while maintaining an elegant and glamorous mood.
With a length that hits just above the floor and a flattering wide silhouette, they allow you to enjoy a somewhat menswear-inspired vibe, balanced exquisitely by the material and slits that lend a feminine touch. They are perfect for achieving an alluring style.
Work-appropriate styling for the “LEVEE BLOUSE” & “GLARE SLIT PANTS”
First, let’s look at the work-appropriate style.

When it comes to sophisticated all-black outfits, it’s all about standing out through materials and details.
All-black looks can often feel heavy, but by choosing a blouse with a soft, airy silhouette for the top, you create an overall sense of effortlessness.
The slit around the neckline of the blouse is an eye-catching point. The lustrous jacquard texture provides both suppleness and glamour.
The pants are the “GLARE SLIT PANTS,” completing the setup.
The subtle reveal of skin from the leg slits links perfectly with the blouse’s neckline. The sequin embroidery on the front offers an elegant shine, which, combined with the jacquard fabric of the blouse, creates an sophisticated atmosphere.
For this look, our staff member Shimazu chose the “Canvas Bag large” for her bag.
The sheen of the faux leather matches the luster of the top’s jacquard fabric. While it brings unity to the outfit, the cotton material adds a touch of “relatability” to the styling.
For footwear, mules with a structured material bolster the elegant vibe. The way the pants bunch slightly at the ankles anchors the silhouette, creating an look that exudes adult confidence.
With an exquisite, balanced interplay of textures, this is a look you'll want to try immediately.
You can easily expand the styling possibilities for special occasions by pairing it with your own heels or a smaller handbag!
Off-duty styling for the “LEVEE BLOUSE” & “GLARE SLIT PANTS”

Maintaining the classic impression, we transitioned to an off-duty style by introducing brighter colors in the shoes and bag. This completes a more relaxed, “polished casual” look for an adult’s day out.
For the feet, we recommend pairing them with flat sandals to enhance the casual feel.
For the bag, we chose the “Raffia Bag large” in BEIGE.
The natural raffia-like material color perfectly complements the sandals, creating a resort mood. This “Raffia Bag large” is high-capacity but lightweight, making it useful for leisure outings where you want to carry towels or water bottles.
Another recommendation is the “Suede Charm Pouch”.
With a size that fits small items like your smartphone or cosmetics, it’s the perfect item for those who want to “enjoy being stylish even on short outings.”
The metallic charm adds an accent. Its convenience in carrying gadgets like a small camera or charger is also a draw, and it fits perfectly as a bag-in-bag for the “Raffia Bag large”.
Next, a special edition featuring the “GLARE SLIT PANTS” in Ivory.
These use gold sequins. It’s a different kind of gorgeous compared to the black version and pairs well with colored items, allowing for a fresh, summer-appropriate outfit.

We highly recommend these for anyone who wants to “wear fresh colors when the sun is strong.” Also, because it’s a calm ivory color, it’s an accessible item even for those who usually avoid “light-colored bottoms.”
We paired them with the “GRADATION TANK TOP,” which features a delicate gradient.
We pulled the styling together with an ivory base.
When you layer the “PICOT SHIRTS” over an outfit with a flowy texture, it emphasizes vertical lines. Combined with the shirt’s line embroidery, you can expect a style-up effect.
A relaxed silhouette that could easily look messy is transformed into an “out-and-about” look through color and accessories.
The gold on the pants, which sways as you walk, makes you look forward to strolling under the bright sunshine! It’s a versatile pair that can even be used for your most special days.
For vacations, why not add a personal touch with colored sunglasses or a bag?
Our staff member Chou incorporated accents of black and yellow with her colored sunglasses.
Style points for the “LEVEE BLOUSE” & “GLARE SLIT PANTS”
The “LEVEE BLOUSE” introduced here is characterized by the healthy skin peek-a-boo from the neckline and the airy silhouette around the shoulders. While it doesn't cling to the body’s lines, it features piping, paneling, and a snug fit around the sleeves to create a defined silhouette.
The “GLARE SLIT PANTS” are also a pair in elegant fabric. A long-length, wide-leg pant might seem casual at first glance, but gimmicks like sequin embroidery and side slits make them easy to incorporate into daily life.
Depending on what you pair them with, they can transition from casual to dressy, broadening your coordination options—another recommended feature. The impression also changes depending on the color, so picking up both colors is definitely encouraged.
As for sizes, Shimazu (166cm) is wearing size 38 for both top and bottom, while Chou (163cm) is wearing size 36 for the pants. The styling, which combines rich material textures with low-heeled shoes and cool, breezy accessories, achieved an exquisite balance.
Please use this as a reference for your own daily wardrobe.
That’s it for this introduction to on-and-off-duty styling that makes the most of accessories, utilizing rich-yet-casual materials and silhouettes.
