The Foundation of Rick Owens' Enduring Style: A Bottoms Feature Tracing His Collections

Rick Owensの不変のスタイルの基盤<br>コレクションから辿るボトムス特集

Rick Owens, the iconic Parisian fashion brand.

With unparalleled creativity, massive design work, and pattern making, Rick Owens has profoundly impacted the fashion scene since its establishment in 1997, building a loyal following.

One of the secrets to Rick Owens' popularity is the established, inimitable style it has perfected.

A crucial element in creating the foundation of this style is the bottomwear.

While categories like outerwear, tops, and shoes are indispensable in forming its unique style, bottomwear is the item that most clearly visualizes it.

This special feature will pick up on the foundational bottomwear that creates Rick Owens' immutable style, categorized by classic silhouettes, and accompanied by past collections and styling examples.

TYPE:SLIM JOGGER

With ribbed cuffs
and a slim taper,
the SLIM JOGGER exudes a stoic sharpness
while also having a light, street-like
vibe.

The ribbed cuffs give it a suitable casualness,
making it highly compatible with sneakers,
and also allowing for boots to be tucked in.
Despite its sporty specifications and silhouette,
it enables a variety of styles.

The rise is neither too shallow nor too deep,
and the exquisite, not-too-tight slimness
is also appealing as it remains timeless.

It strikes a balance between lively, street-like
casualness and
a fashionably stoic look,
a timeless yet
classic Rick Owens silhouette.

TYPE : WIDE

A WIDE garment, where Rick Owens' signature architectural pattern work is fully utilized.

The wide leg, extending from a deep rise, doesn't feel loose at all; rather, it creates a powerful presence, like a monumental structure.

The pooling at the hem forms a three-dimensional shape with captivating drapes and sculptural wrinkles, creating a glamorous yet massively powerful impression.

Its compatibility with Rick Owens' voluminous shoes goes without saying, as they enhance each other's presence.

It also pairs well with tight tops, forming the foundational silhouette for creating a trendy style.

TYPE: FLARE

FLARE, a strong expression of the fetishistic
and seductive beauty of Rick Owens.

This glamorous and impactful silhouette features
a moderately tight waist and
shaped thighs, flaring dramatically
towards the hem.

True to Rick Owens, who was born and raised
in America, this silhouette is reminiscent of
Americanized flare jeans, creatively reflecting
his own origins and trajectory, which is a
characteristic feature of the silhouette.

While conveying an edgy and fashionable
impression with its architectural silhouette,
characteristic of Rick Owens, it's also worth noting
its outstanding style-enhancing effect.

It goes without saying that it pairs perfectly with
iconic voluminous shoes and tight tops, creating
a trendy style while incorporating the timeless
Americanized elements of denim, making it
an evergreen silhouette.

TYPE : SARROUEL

Among Rick Owens' silhouettes,
the most iconic,
SARROUEL

This silhouette features
a relaxed feel from the loose rise
and a sharp, aggressive taper
that tightens up the street-style impression.

Starting his career as a patternmaker,
Rick Owens' masterful pattern work
creates a silhouette that, despite having a very deep hip area,
fits beautifully around the waist
without unnecessary bulk,
resulting in a truly loose silhouette
that is neither sloppy nor unfashionable.

The tapering towards the hem
creates a natural,
slim leg,
embodying stoicism within its looseness.

Another characteristic is its ability
to create a low-centered bottom,
and when combined with loose, long tops,
it achieves Rick Owens' signature beautiful,
elongated style.

This silhouette is essential
for creating such
a distinctive style.

TYPE : SHORTS

Used frequently in shows
regardless of the season,
and a core element of
Rick Owens' style,
SHORTS

Maintaining the sophisticated feel
of shorts, while Rick Owens' pattern work
and beautiful fit create
a silhouette that achieves a chic
and effortless style.

The longer, knee-length
cut also allows for a vertical
silhouette, a unique feature
for shorts.

The relaxed fit
allows for leggings to be worn underneath,
enabling styling that goes beyond
the traditional boundaries of shorts.

This silhouette can be enjoyed in various ways,
as it pairs well with both boots and sneakers.
