If you are looking for classical yet sensual well-tailored menswear, check out kiryuyrik. Masakatsu Takayanagi, a Japanese designer who worked for Y's / Yohji Yamamoto has launched his own label in 2002 with business partner Yuki Taniyama. You will know his skillful pattern-making techniques when you wear his jacket Swarovski embroidered back or collar or his peaked lapel long coat with a tighter silhouette. A vertical pocket creates elegant line and the wisely inserted pleats enable a comfortable fit. For the 2007 autumn season, he features his unique jacquard fabric mixed with the traditional hound's-tooth check and his symbolic butterfly. He also offers a three-piece suit and a shirt with black coated silver accessories. Some hoodies and T-shirts with a rock-chic print add a casual aspect to his collection. The prices of jackets are from 47,000 to 82,000 yen and the pants are from 28,000 to 45,000 yen. kiryuyrik is sold at Isetan/Tokyo, H.Lorenzo/L.A., First Among Equals/N.Y., Day & Night/Russia, and other boutiques around the world.
