XLIM Expands EP.7 Collection With Multi-Category "Synopsis" Capsule
The line extension includes a sleek electric blue tote, a climbing rope belt, a glass vase, and a set of pens.
Seoul-based label XLIM‘s unique storytelling strategy and hybrid garments have made it an increasingly popular name in the South Korean streetwear scene. Along with releasing extensive collections dubbed “Episodes,” the Dohee Kim-led collective also designs extensions to each collection called “Synopses.” For the SS25 Episode 7, XLIM has unveiled a multi-category Synopsis building upon the technical design language of the line with a concise range of different products.
Leading the Synopsis is an oversized reversible tote bag, which combines a smooth fabric shell and adjustable leather handles. An electric blue colorway with cream straps stands out, but the bag is also offered in a monochromatic black variant. The style can be worn either showing a textured denim, or turned inside out to show a matte fabric. Another addition to the accessories is a black rope-style belt that resembles climbing gear, complete with chrome hardware and reinforced embellishments.
Continuing to explore other categories, XLIM also presents a new piece of homeware. A clear glass vase is branded with the XLIM wordmark and comes with upcycled fabric off-cuts that mimic dried foliage. Lastly, a set of four pens in various colors, including electric blue and neon yellow, tops the collection off with a touch of stationery.
Hypebeast interviewed XLIM founder Dohee Kim in the latest issue of Hypebeast Magazine: The Wavelength Issue, which can be ordered online now. The multi-hyphenate creative discusses the philosophy behind the label’s narrative approach to designing new collections and expanding of the brand’s offerings with more synopses.
XLIM Episode 7 Synopsis will arrive at XLIM‘s Hyundai Seoul Store on April 11.
