慢步調的優質生活態度現在正盛行,騎單車這個運動不僅健康、環保,更多時候來說,應該是以時髦為取向吧,而論起時髦,“TWEED RUN”堪稱是時髦單車活動之首了。TWEED RUN這個活動發起於倫敦,旨在向19世紀的紳士文人們致敬,自2009年起,一年一度舉辦著這場復古時尚,都市慢騎的活動,到場的人需身穿復古毛呢服飾(Tweed),搭配方式在個人,方便騎車即可。現場能看見許多將復古時尚與運動機能取相結合的穿搭,且當他們一群人朝你騎來時,還真像跌入另一個時空。真有趣,我們總是不斷的在追尋過去的美好。現在,不僅在倫敦,莫斯科、紐約、北京、東京也一年一度舉辦著這項健康又有意思的活動。
所以當我看見Inheritance Map,最新的秋冬系列時,我忍不住傻了個眼,畢竟把這個復古時尚融入新的設計真是挺新潮的,後來發現這是該品牌與Sense 30,一間復古自轉車會社合作推出的系列服飾,我就茅塞頓開了。Sense 30是由三位藝術家所成立,專門引進精緻的古董紳士單車,Inheritance Map則是一個線條簡單,不多做潮流設計卻堅持質感的品牌,兩個品牌合在一起,除了Tweed Run,真的沒別的了!
不光是復古,這系列服飾還增添了許多機能性的小細節,像是外套合身的版型,開衩的下擺讓騎乘更加容易,許多小細節處增添了活摺,也能讓動作更加利落。看看我身上這條褲子,以馬褲的線條為設計,好多的口袋讓我放了鑰匙、零錢、手機還有零食,哈哈,褲管上貼心的反光條,讓我就算騎到晚上還是不用害怕被撞(因為怕撞我幾乎不騎車)。我知道你可能會說,這跟時下流行的造型有出入,但比起流行,有時候我更喜歡這種有故事的設計。我一直覺得流行不等於時髦,流行是你穿的衣服,時髦則是你穿了衣服後所展現的態度。對了!我有說Inheritance Map是一個台灣品牌嗎?很高興在八月份回台設計師探親之旅認識了他,像這樣有故事能講的設計態度我最欣賞了,他們跟Sense 30跨界合作,也是Fashion x Life Style非常有趣的結合。至於哪裡能找到Inheritance Map呢,就在東區的一間歐風復合式服飾店,Hotel V裡。我喜歡裡面的裝潢,店面的概念,還有讓人落腳的咖啡廳,不僅有Inheritance Map這樣的台灣品牌,店內也引進許多歐美設計師服飾配件,更時常與新銳藝術家合作店面裝置,很有意思的一個地方。噢噢我還要說,入口的那一大面紫葉牆拍起照來極美。
好期待在台灣街頭看見一群歐風時尚的自行車客!當然,如果你覺得這樣整套的復古太難駕馭了,也可以把這些復古優雅的服飾加到平日的穿搭裡頭,不管是什麼風格的搭配,都能增添一絲穩重。
“Tweed Run” is a fashionable cyclist activity started from London. WHy so I say fashionable? Everyone who wanna participate has to dress up like ladies and gentlemen in 19 century. It’s s super retro day for cycling lovers! When I first saw this theme has been used in a collection of Taiwanese brand Inheritance Map, I was so surprise.
It’s a collaboration with Sense 30, a retro bicycle select boutique in Taipei. Inheritance Map created a new collection of retro cyclist, and added some sporty functional details into the design. We can all have beautiful outfits for a cycling day!
I wanna specially talk about the place I found this creative brand, it’s a place called “Hotel V”, where you can find lots of different designer brands of clothes and accessories. There’s also a beautiful cafe that I like so much. Ever since I moved to Milan, I’m always looking for a place to sit down a bit and have a coffee haha. Definitely a must come place in Taiwan!
Well, I’m looking so forward to see more and more people dressed up and ride in the city:) If you think it’s a little too much to dress a total retro look, just play some mix and match! To add some vintage kind of piece to the outfit is a tip of creating the sense of elegant.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]Here are some example that I wore with the shirts not being too retro:[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]基礎學院風Basic School Look:[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1649″ img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”full”][vc_single_image image=”1648″ img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]原因不明辣妹風 Sexy for no reson look lol:[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1342″ img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”full”][vc_single_image image=”1333″ img_link_target=”_self” img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]
