DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING

Sov. is an independent elegance-oriented line launched in 2002, carrying forward the philosophy of DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING. While the main line foregrounds a mix of trends and casual elements, Sov. builds a wardrobe for mature women around clean silhouettes, high-quality materials, and timeless design. Among DSC’s lines for women, it is positioned as the line responsible for more refined everyday wear and modern elegance, and it is also officially listed as a product line of DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING.

D/him is a menswear line whose name is an abbreviation of “DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING him.” It began in 2005 with the aim of bringing the design essence developed in the parent brand’s womenswear into men’s wardrobes. Unlike the women’s lines Sov. and ESSENTIAL, it expands the brand family through a range of menswear. Its name itself incorporates its connection to the parent brand, and it is officially treated as a DSC product line.

VANILLA CoUTURE was a bridal line derived from DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING. Announced in 2012, it focused on dresses for weddings and semi-formal wedding receptions, distinct from its regular women’s wear. Unlike the main line’s daily wear, Sov.’s elegance, and D/him’s menswear offerings, it specialized in wedding-related demand, broadening the range of uses served by the brand family. It is not included in the current official product-line list, but major fashion media at the time reported it as a new bridal brand from DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING.

D/Nero was the highest-end line launched in 2018 for overseas expansion by Masahisa Takino and Film Co., the company behind DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING. It began as an export-oriented project centered on Japanese denim, and was later carried forward as OSLOW when it was revamped into a brand offering a full range of items. Although it has since been revamped as OSLOW, the brand category remains on the official online store, and Film Co.’s brand history identifies it as a derivative line that preceded OSLOW.

CORCOVADO is a dress-focused offshoot brand launched in 2019 within the DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING brand family. While the main line proposes everyday total looks that combine multiple elements, CORCOVADO promotes a lifestyle that incorporates dresses into everyday life, centering on one-piece dresses suited to occasions ranging from work to days off. Official product-line listings and the brands carried at directly operated stores place it in the same lineup as DSC, Sov., ESSENTIAL, and OSLOW, with CORCOVADO responsible for the dress category within the group of lines.

OSLOW is a luxury-oriented line that emerged from the DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING brand family in 2022. Combining “LUXURY” and “SLOW LIFE,” it proposes Japanese luxury focused on high-quality materials and beautiful patterns. It has a distinct role from the main line’s trend mix, Sov.’s elegance, and CORCOVADO’s specialization in dresses, and is developed as the FILM company’s highest-end line. Within the current family, it occupies the upper tier, emphasizing materials and tailoring.

ESSENTIAL is a sports line derived from DOUBLE STANDARD CLOTHING. It carries forward the main line’s approach of combining fashion and reality, while reflecting seasonal trend signatures in its materials and treatments and developing them into casual, sporty items. Its role differs from the elegance of Sov. and the menswear offering of D/him. It is listed in the official product-line lineup as a light, approachable option for everyday active settings.
