Dessin de Mode

pas deux pareils is a factory brand that developed from a capsule collection based on DESSIN DE MODE prints and became an independent brand through collaboration between dyeing artisans and people involved in Kyoto marble. Unlike the main brand’s comprehensive clothing offering, it focuses on areas such as shirts and outerwear that use the marble-printing technique dating back to the 1920s and make use of variations in pattern from piece to piece. New patterns and styles have been added over multiple seasons, making it a technique-specialized derivative line within the brand family, centered on a particular craft.

ROUTINE is an independent knitwear brand derived from a capsule collection by DESSIN DE MODE. It is a factory brand launched by designer Tsutomu Mizuno in collaboration with a knitwear factory in Gosen, Niigata Prefecture. While the main brand covers a broad range of daily wear for men and women, ROUTINE focuses on the factory’s distinctive processing techniques and reinterpretations of vintage knitwear. Within the brand family, it is positioned as a spin-off line foregrounding local production techniques and expertise in knitwear manufacturing.

Bois&Forets is a brand launched in 2024 as a new label derived from DESSIN DE MODE. The designer of DESSIN DE MODE brings together the creative foundations developed at the brand—Japanese materials, sewing, and collaboration with artisans—and develops them into art-piece-like garments centered on handwork and craftsmanship. While ROUTINE focuses on knitwear factories and pas deux pareils on the specific technique of Kyoto marble, Bois&Forets is positioned as an aggregated derivative line incorporating multiple forms of craftsmanship, such as botanical dyeing.
