From the series where LA-based director Uchida shares her curated items and styling tips for the SS26 season.
For this third installment, we introduce "Versatile Ways to Wear Cut-and-Sew Tops."
Don't miss the refreshing color palettes that celebrate spring. We hope you enjoy.

Enjoy it inside out –REVERSIBLE TWIST TOP

Vol.2に登場したWRINKLES PANELED PANTSに、今回はREVERSIBLE TWIST TOPを合わせました。
The pattern, twisted from the right side to the front, creates a gather silhouette that is fun to look at.
It adds a stylish accent to a simple outfit.
Combined with its compact fit, it offers a secure, skin-hugging feel and resilient stretch that makes it a delight to wear.

Another point I'd like to recommend is its texture.
It has a different quality from cotton T-shirts, characterized by a powdery, smooth feel.
I hope you can experience its friction-free, silky touch that you’ll want to keep touching.

REVERSIBLE TWIST TOP features a two-tone color scheme on the front and back, so it's fun how the look changes depending on how you wear it. Besides switching which color to show based on your mood, rolling up the sleeves for a subtle accent is also recommended.

The GRAY version worn here features an off-white interior, creating a gentle and casual appearance.

Other available colors are GREEN/GRAY, PINK/RED, and WHITE/ECRU. Please find your favorite!

Captivating Layered Style –2 LAYER HALF SLEEVE TOPS

A style that enjoys layering with both color and silhouette, combining the GREEN and YELLOW versions of the 2 LAYER HALF SLEEVE TOPS, a set featuring a T-shirt and a one-shoulder top.
While keeping the tone soft, a sense of playfulness is added through the voluminous balloon pants and accessories like tin badges.

Also as a Tube Top –2 LAYER HALF SLEEVE TOPS

2 LAYER HALF SLEEVE TOPS can be worn in even more creative ways.
You can slip your arms out of the shoulder straps to wear it like a tube top.
Layered over a cut-and-sew top, or worn on its own for a healthy summer look—the versatility of your styling expands depending on your ingenuity.

When you want to add a sense of lightness to your outfit this season, we also recommend pairing it with shirts or jackets.
The healthy look of the décolleté brings a perfect touch of effortless style to the whole ensemble.

For this outfit, Uchida wore the 2WAY SHIRTS W/PALMA SCARF layered over it.
While the overall styling leans masculine, the yellow of the tube top acts as an accent, adding lightness and softness.
Furthermore, incorporating polished accessories and shoes gives the casual look a touch of sophistication.
