While designer Daiki Suzuki has earned (deserved) praise for Engineered Garments, Nepenthes, his line's parent company, isn't widely known outside Japan. That state of affairs will likely be remedied when Needles, another one of the company's brands, sees larger distribution in the U.S. next spring. (Their Fall collection is currently sold exclusively at Odin New York). Designed by Keizo Shimizu, who founded Nepenthes back in '88, Needles' new fare has a quirky Western vibe and rumpled bohemian sensibility, not to mention an attention to detail that makes the clothes both covetable and entertaining—if, you know, you're into quirky, bohemian Westerners.
