The work of a J'AKE collection often follows conceptual narratives that uses clothing as form of visual communication. This is effective through the use of layering contrasting fabrics with a minimal colour palette. A signature J’AKE aesthetic breathes life into a cohesive group of collections that are trans seasonal and generationally integrated.
