Here, we introduce some of the finest pieces from 11 brands. From high-quality down jackets that seamlessly integrate into any outfit and elevate your style, to eye-catching blousons, there's a wide variety to choose from. Prepare for a stylish winter with these one-of-a-kind items that offer a glimpse into each brand's philosophy!

1. Alexander McQueen

Founded in 1992 by the late Alexander McQueen, hailed as a genius, at the young age of 22, the brand took the fashion world by storm with its designs that broke with conventional norms. Sarah Burton took over as designer in 2010.

We've selected two pieces that exude both authenticity and modernity. The black light nylon down jacket features a trendy cropped length. It's further enhanced with silver snap buttons and a concealed zipper for a solid finish. A McQueen graffiti print adorns the back of the collar and the inside back, adding a subtle yet appealing touch.

This pea coat, with its striking contrast between matte wool fabric and glossy satin sleeves, features dropped shoulders and a relaxed, boxy silhouette. The low-positioned four-button closure adds a touch of classic sophistication. Flap pockets on the front ensure practicality as well.

2. BALMAIN HOMME

Founded in 1945 by Pierre Balmain, the brand saw Olivier Rousteing become creative director in 2011. He continues the founder's elegance while incorporating modern styles and avant-garde elements into his collections.


We're introducing two garments featuring dynamic graphics in different styles.
This quilted nylon jacket, featuring the BALMAIN monogram all over, is a 2-in-1 design that can also be worn as a vest by removing the sleeves. While it has a voluminous silhouette, the clever tailoring, including the waist seam, adds definition. The black BALMAIN badge on the chest, which complements the Velcro on the hood, creates a perfectly balanced look—truly impressive.
On the right is an aviator jacket made of high-quality lambskin leather with a graffiti print. A random pin badge is attached to the chest, expressing this season's grunge theme. While the kangaroo pocket and ribbed cuffs and hem give it a casual look, the fur lining in the hood and the silver buttons on the chin strap give it a luxurious finish.

3. BRUNELLO CUCINELLI

Founded in Italy in 1978, the company creates beautiful and warm products using traditional craftsmanship and the finest materials, primarily cashmere, with top-notch tailoring. They practice humanistic management in the small Italian village of Solomeo.

True to the brand's "sports chic luxury" concept, this down jacket combines a sporty style with a relaxed feel. It features a melange knit made with high-quality cashmere yarn, resulting in a soft texture. Its warmth and lightweight comfort are guaranteed. The stand collar has a stowable hood, and the cuffs are ribbed for wind protection, adding to its functionality. This is a truly chic and luxurious down jacket, packed with high quality in every detail while maintaining a simple design.

4. BURBERRY

A men's luxury fashion house boasting world-class sartorial techniques. It gained attention when James Bond wore its garments in the '007' film series. Since 2022, Jude Law and his son, Ruff Law, have served as brand ambassadors.

From the prestigious brand BURBERRY , we've selected three down jackets, each with its own unique style.
The down jacket that appeared on the runway is a special item exclusive to Isetan. The black base with well-balanced orange lettering makes it versatile for a wide range of styles. On the runway, it was paired with a classic shirt and tie combination.
In the center is a modern nylon jacket in a deep blue. The back of the waist is embroidered with an outlined Burberry logo. This relaxed-fit jacket is perfect for city wear.
The Night Check pattern, composed of dark charcoal and blue, is a design themed around a sense of adventure and exploration into the unknown. The detachable hood and offset placket prevent it from feeling boring.

5. DSQUARED2

Founded in Italy in 1994 by Canadian-born twin designers, the brand interprets sophisticated Italian tailoring with intellectual humor and pursues meticulous attention to detail.

From DSQUARED2 , known for its playful designs, we introduce two pieces that will liven up your winter wardrobe.
On the right is a down jacket featuring the "DSQUARED2" logo visible when the front is opened. In addition to the wide Velcro closure on the placket, it has functional details that effectively shut out the cold, such as the inner ribbed cuffs and drawstring at the hem. The colorful primary color blocking makes it a statement piece that brightens up winter styling, which can often be dull. On the left is a military green jacket with diamond quilting, accented with a red drawstring and "D2" logo. The soft nylon and fleece lining provide both lightness and warmth.

6. GIORGIO ARMANI

Having taken the world by storm in the 1980s with its soft suits, the brand is known for its modern and elegant designs. It continues to offer classic, high-fashion styles with its subdued color palettes.


This piece comes from a collection that reinterprets the casual fabric of denim in Armani's unique style. It features drawstrings at the hood, waist, and hem, allowing you to adjust the silhouette to your liking. Matching denim trousers made from the same fabric are also available, allowing you to wear the outerwear and bottoms as a set—an elegant suggestion that reflects the brand's prestigious status. You can further enhance the overall look by coordinating the inner wear and shoes in navy.
This hooded blouson, available exclusively at Isetan in the brand's signature navy color, is a simple yet stylish item that elevates any outfit. It features three practical outer pockets and a GA logo on the chest.

7. GIVENCHY

Founded in 1951 when Hubert de Givenchy presented his first collection, the brand is known for designing many of Audrey Hepburn's costumes. Currently, Matthew M. Williams serves as creative director, powerfully leading the legacy of GIVENCHY into the future.


We've picked out two pieces that are typical of the brand, with black as the main color.
This brushed mixed wool bomber jacket features calf leather sleeves and monochrome striped ribbing, giving it a varsity jacket-like finish. A "GIVENCHY" signature leather patch on the front and an embossed 4G emblem on the sleeve enhance its luxurious appeal.
On the right is a reversible parka with two sides: technical nylon and brushed faux leather. The GIVENCHY logo and 4G emblem are subtly featured on the sleeves of the nylon side. This outerwear piece, with its contrasting materials on each side, can be styled both elegantly and casually.

8. Loro Piana

While maintaining its reputation as a top-tier textile manufacturer, the apparel line crafted using that expertise is truly sublime. Its modern design approach results in a wide range of items that perfectly capture current trends.

This square-quilted down jacket features luxurious Plongé leather on the body, which has a soft and beautiful sheen, and Cashmere Storm System® sleeves for a flawless finish. With its versatile design and familiar, nuanced colors, it's sure to become a cherished item in your wardrobe.
In the center is a soft baby cashmere bomber jacket. The matching wind-resistant microfiber hood adds a sense of security and a subtle accent to the outfit. The relaxed fit is adjustable with a drawstring at the hem for added comfort.
On the right is a windbreaker featuring a tartan pattern inspired by Loro Piana 's iconic Icer jacket, made with a new cashmere fabric. While retaining details such as the detachable collar, it has been updated with a voluminous silhouette for a modern look.

9. Off-White™

Founded in 2014 by the late Virgil Abloh, the brand's unique approach, stemming from his deep knowledge of architecture and other fields, combined with Italy's renowned craftsmanship, has breathed new life into the world of streetwear.

A new version of Off-White™'s iconic varsity jacket has arrived. The late Abloh's name shines throughout the item, which is adorned with numerous dangling patches and embroidery. The brand's signature "Diag" design is incorporated into the sleeves, adding a structured touch.
The most special item in this collection is a knit hoodie that features a distinctive motif found on the varsity jacket, expressed through knitting. The graphic, which also appears on the aforementioned jacket, is adorned with rhinestones, enhancing its luxurious feel. The zipper pull is designed in the shape of a paperclip, making it a playful and unique piece.

10. Rick Owens

Founded in 1997 by the charismatic Rick Owens, the brand draws inspiration from the elegant designs of the early 20th century, but combines this with a decadent worldview to create a unique atmosphere that has garnered fans worldwide.

This single rider's jacket is made from soft grain cowhide leather with a textured finish. The "INTARSIA" model, a staple since the brand's inception, features darts on the front. While the design is simple, the balance between the tight silhouette and the long sleeves that gather around the wrists is what makes this jacket so distinctively the brand.
On the right is a classic outer shirt updated with an oversized fit. The check fabric, made from wool and alpaca, boasts a beautiful color contrast and excellent warmth. The strap on the back, which allows it to be worn over the shoulder, is a signature Rick Owens design. A large inner pocket makes it convenient for everyday use.

11. VERSACE

Founded by Gianni Versace, this Milan-based luxury fashion house is known for its glamorous and dramatic creations. Currently, the company is led by the founder's sister, Donatella Versace.


We've selected two pieces from Versace, a brand known for its elegant designs.
