What is nuterm?
nuterm is a Japanese fashion label that presented its first collection for autumn/winter 2017. From the start it positioned itself around bold reworkings of familiar wardrobe staples.
Products and positioning
The debut collection made buckles its signature, placing them at the neck, chest and wrists of long coats, cropped jackets and bombers. It also included oversized trousers, an elongated knitted hoodie and a sleeveless vest without a back panel, showing an interest in altering proportion and construction rather than simply decorating garments.
The core categories are:
- Outerwear
- Knitwear
- Shirting
- Trousers
Following seasons, including spring/summer 2018, continued this approach of streamlined, street-ready uniforms, and the label has presented collections on Japanese fashion media such as Fashionsnap.
Why it matters
nuterm belongs to a generation of young Japanese labels that work with technical detailing and reconstructed classics, a direction that has kept Tokyo menswear visible to international buyers and readers.
