## Summary

Black mohair sweater featuring a textured, semi-sheer knit construction with a crew neckline and long sleeves.

## Description

Many of the pieces from “Radioactivity” derived their narrow, uniform cuts from the New Wave music scene, specifically pioneering electronic artists like John Foxx, Kraftwerk, and Ryuichi Sakamoto, all of whom employed rigid, traditional tailoring to express conformity and a looming monoculture brought about by rapidly advancing technology. Even when Raf Simons employed heavy leather trousers and exposed zippers on his biker coats, he left the silhouettes almost too rigid to breathe, and at other times covered models’ faces with blank moto helmets. This top does a good job of illuminating the silhouettes Simons was working with throughout his early years. It’s cut ultra-slim and cropped with elongated sleeves. The mohair fabric, which was used extensively throughout the collection, is slightly sheer. Condition: 9/10. No significant flaws. Tagged size: 48 Shoulder: 14in Pit to pit: 15in Length: 24in Sleeve: 29in
