Summary
- Japanese label Graphpaper has unveiled its FW25 collection ahead of its eventual release later this year.
- The lookbook, which includes outerwear, basics, and accessories, is executed with masterful layering and pared-back tonal color palettes.
Japanese label Graphpaper has unveiled its FW25 collection with a strong lookbook showcasing founder Takayuki Minami’s refined approach to menswear, featuring everything from sleek tailoring, puffer jackets, workwear silhouettes, and bold basics. Styled with masterful layering and pared-back tonal color palettes, the forthcoming collection provides a well-rounded winter wardrobe rooted in functional simplicity.
Colorwise, the collection is largely neutral, focusing on traditional menswear colors like black, beige, gray, and navy. However, Minami demonstrates his close attention to palette curation with two vivid accents: electric blue and a butter yellow.
A standout look teases a bright blue top, presumably a turtle neck, underneath a forest green utility jacket, and styled with gray trousers and mittens. Elsewhere, the butter yellow performs like a neon, applied to dress shirts, belts, and mittens in looks dominated by neutral hues. Graphpaper breaks up the mostly solid colored collection with gradient knits, including a turtle neck sweatshirt and fingerless gloves that smoothly transition from black to light gray.
One of the most elevated looks includes a charcoal suit boasting a Japanese-inspired collar, a beige shirt and neck gaiter, and a black overcoat gently draped over the shoulders. In other instances, Graphpaper leans more into sportswear, showing one look comprised of a padded charcoal winter jacket worn over a beige turtleneck and green shell pants. Another standout includes a minimal, but effective look, including a black turtle neck, a boxy black leather jacket, and off-white work pants.
As of the time of writing, an official release date for Graphpaper’s FW25 hasn’t been shared, but stay tuned to Hypebeast for further updates.
