What to know about TOGA ARCHIVES

Skewed proportions, not clean minimalism

Furuta builds from Western tailoring, British subcultural references and Japanese craft, ending in off-kilter cuts, sculptural dresses and embellished knitwear.

The footwear carries the hardware

Buckles, plates and metal trims define the shoe line, sold under TOGA PULLA SHOE, and are a large part of what the label is recognised for.

Menswear sits under TOGA VIRILIS

The label splits into sublines: TOGA PULLA, TOGA PULLA SHOE, menswear as TOGA VIRILIS, and store-exclusive one-off pieces as TOGA PICTA.
