FW04 “Waves” Paisley Hoodie in Grey

Raf Simons FW2004-2005 Paisley Hoodie from “Waves”. Iconic collection which was built around this excerpt from Spanish Philosopher Ortega Y Gasset:

Life is, in itself and forever, shipwreck. To be shipwrecked is not to drown. The poor human being, feeling himself sinking into the abyss, moves his arms to keep afloat. This movement of the arms is culture—a swimming stroke.

For this season Raf printed this passage on tags, sweaters, jackets and so on. This is also carefully printed along the printed paisley design for this piece. Loose hood, cotton drawstrings and loose/wide fit. Raf’s fabrics tend to deteriorate and age gracefully.

7.5/10 condition. Size 52 Fits an L-XL
