Lookbook: DIM. E CRES. Autumn 2014

I came across DIM. E CRES. when I visited Korea last year and the style was immediately relatable. And as you'll see from the Fall editorial of their latest Autumn collection, they're meant for the kids who hid out in the alley by the dumpster, trying to find some semblance of normalcy when, unbeknownst to them, their futures were reaching out a shining hand.

DIM. E CRES. is actually the second line of CRES. E DIM. - 'CRES' meaning 'getting gradually louder' and 'DIM' meaning 'getting gradually softer' from the musical term 'Crescendo E Diminuendo.' Hong Bum Kim uses that undulating concept in shaping his fashion identity, experimenting with different fabrics, shapes and colours. The result being a "modern style projecting contemporary value" with DIM. E CRES. being the twin that chews gum.
