Master of Mess

March 01, 2018

In essence, Master of Mess is the meeting of minds. The artistic endeavor is a dual effort— driven by Ximon Lee, in collaboration with musical artist Pan Daijing, who has created a piece dedicated to the designer's Fall/Winter 2018 collection.

The project, a series of performance and installation pieces, was presented at Paris Fashion Week alongside Ximon's avant-garde attire. Pan Daijing's strange, shocking soundscape and sensory performance piece felt perfectly fitting for such a cerebral collection.

The evocative experience had a tangible element that truly encapsulated the eerie elegance and textural complexity of Ximon's conceptual, creative approach to couture. But what they've given us with Master of Mess was best put by the masters themselves. This, is the "melancholic gaze into the tangled inner paths of their minds."

Alpha Industries: SS26 Onion Quilting Collection

February 04, 2026

Alpha Industries introduces the Onion Quilting Collection. Originally designed as part of the U.S. Army’s cold-weather layering system to deliver lightweight insulation without restricting movement, onion quilting traces back to the quilted liner of the M-65 Field Jacket. For Spring/Summer 2026, Alpha reinterprets this heritage through the ALS-92 liner, a contemporary evolution developed for civilian wear.

Inspired by ALS-92, the Onion Quilting Collection translates the intent of the original system into a modern context, maintaining a focus on mobility and versatility. Each piece reflects Alpha’s consistent approach to utility-driven design, strengthening the brand’s commitment to authentic heritage through modern construction and restraint.
