NEEDLES Drops Layer-Friendly Down Parkas for FW19
Featuring sleek Taffeta textiles.




After releasing the Asymmetric Ghillie Sneakers last week, NEEDLES has returned with new outerwear pieces from its FW19 lineup. Featured are two insulated parkas that have been decorated with a slew of bold patterns.
The first parka features a traditional pattern in the brand’s usual style. Contrasting silver-toned two-way zippers run down the center, framed by thin hazel brown fabric. The jacket comes with wide, slightly raised collars and two welt pockets at the front, while a hidden zipper pocket above the right welt and tonal cuffs round up the design. The other parka boasts a dark olive base color, accented with burnished red-brown dyes that have been unevenly spread. In contrast to the previous piece, this jacket is constructed with tussore fabric, giving it a light sheen. As a finishing note, the parka comes with a quilted nylon inner lining and dark gunmetal-tone hardware for a more muted color scheme.
The NEEDLES FW19 Down Parkas are currently available at nepenthes.shop-pro.jp for $608 USD.
