Raf Simons × Sterling Ruby Autumn-Winter 2014 Collaboration Trench Coat

A classic trench reworked with panels of contrasting tape, from Raf Simons’s 2014 collaboration with the American artist Sterling Ruby.

The Piece

Pieces from this collection are catalogued by collectors as archive references rather than seasonal fashion, and this one is described in Japan as close to unused.
