What is Double Face ...

The double face means that  two single pieces of fabrics glued together.

With a single piece of fabric but both sides are the front, we can make clothes lighter than usual.

The fabric, which is carefully opened one by one and sewn with a sewing machine, is finally completed by hand sewing.

Double face was originally developed as a rain shield for horses in the UK.

A huge hit as a clothing item in the 1960s.

The double face that hit the revival in the 1980s can make an elegant silhouette.

It is still used by major maison.

STUDIO YPSILON, who is good at in double face, puts top priority on products made by craftsmen who are particular about quality.
