TALKING ABOUT THE ABSTRACTION “New York City” Paper Clutch

TALKING ABOUT THE ABSTRACTION “New York City” Paper Clutch. FW2015. A crazy accessory from a crazy Japanese brand. This (huge) clutch is supposed to look like a hitchhiker’s sign. The clutch is made in some kind of sturdy canvas, coated with kraft paper. When the clutch is opened, a map of the surrounding land of New York City is revealed. We like to think of it as a multipurpose clutch that the hitchhiker can use on their way to show their destination to bypassing cars, while being able to orientate themselves, while carrying their laptop or necessities, all at once.

Brand information: 
TALKING ABOUT THE ABSTRACTION is one among three brands founded by Naoki Ichihara: MATATABI, Breathed Things and TALKING ABOUT THE ABSTRACTION are perhaps most famous for their very extensive use of transfer print. You’ll see everything from jeans to leather jackets with rowdy prints. The prints are often meant to create an optic illusion, such as a hoodie with a very precise print of a puffer jacket covering the entire thing. Ichihara’s core ideology behind the brand is, that everything has equal value. He makes casual clothing with no regard for traditional norms and stupid gender roles. 

Sizes:

Since a large portion of our garments are Japanese, the size you will see is almost always different from the marked size. In order to be as precise as possible, we have created a size chart more suitable for the average size range of our customers. We put a disclaimer in the product description of all garments where this applies. Navigate to the Size Chart in the footer menu.
