Maybe you’ve seen them: a pair of black, raw silk wrap pants. Communicating ease as well as mathematics, the bowed, Eastern-inspired shape of the tapered garment might cause a double take. Like many of the best-designed objects, this signature piece from emerging Portland brand Mônom has the practical function of plain black pants yet provides intrigue for those given to closer inspection.
A collaboration between New York-seasoned couturier Gretchen Belle and graphic designer Sky Speir, Mônom has started to make its presence known, with a small suite of progressive pieces in luxury fabrics—wool, silk, leather—at shops like West End Select Shop and Haunt. We tapped Belle and Speir for more info.
