YLEVE

Founded in 2018 by designer Reiko Taguchi, YLEVE began as a womenswear brand and expanded into menswear from spring/summer 2022. The brand focuses on the fundamentals of garment making, emphasizing fabric quality, silhouette, and construction. Drawing from workwear, military, and tailoring references, YLÈVE creates contemporary designs through material selection and colour balance. Using mainly original fabrics, all pieces are sewn in specialized factories in Japan. YLÈVE carefully considers the way its patterns rest and move on bodies, resulting in clothes that wear with effortless beauty and comfort.
