CFCL Wants You To Live A “Knit-ware” Filled Life

Fundamentally, CFCL is influenced by mathematical interpretations of modern knitwear designs. After completing ten seasons, designer Yusuke Takahashi reminisced about the computer-assisted knitting techniques that sparked his interest as a student. For the Fall/Winter 2025 collection, dubbed “Knit-ware,” the foundational principles of this philosophy were showcased.

The assemblage, known as “Plotline,” drew its influence from anthropologist Tim Gold’s work, “Lines: A Brief History,” which explores the intricate connection between human linear creations such as singing, narration, drawing, weaving, and even our patterns of walking.

Consequently, every glance seemed to exude a sense of equilibrium. The predominant hues stemmed from black knits crafted from recycled polyester, with vibrant threads of primary shades such as red and blue interlaced, occasionally deviating towards softer tones like olive-green and off-white.

In certain areas, shoulders were rounded and hemlines were short, while legs appeared longer due to long horizontal lines. Meanwhile, accordion pleats subtly moved with the body’s motion, sometimes gathering at the elbow joint or serving as a layer over a well-tailored suit.

Miyu Hosoi created a musical accompaniment for the fashion show, much like how the design of the knitwear mirrors its linear structure. By delving into the digital roots of the clothing pieces, the music transformed into an immersive, three-dimensional sensation that celebrated the craftsmanship behind pattern design and mechanical production.

At a casual look, Takahashi’s Volume 10 compilation beautifully conveys the graceful fluidity of movement that results from years of careful, attentive study.
