This design was created to challenge the common dress code requirement for men to wear ties when attending the opera or a concert. Especially in Asia, where air conditioning was not as prevalent in the past, wearing a tie can be unbearably hot and uncomfortable. By placing a banned symbol on the tie of a Japanese opera performer, this design aims to call out and question this restrictive attire convention. The message behind it is to advocate for more comfort and flexibility in formal event attire, particularly in warmer climates.
Washing Tips:
- Wash with neutral detergent in water (~30⁰C/86⁰F or less) and do not use bleach.
- Invert socks when washing to maintain softness and less fluff for a longer time.
- Ironing may cause the the nylon/spandex to deform and alter the colour of the socks so please dry naturally.
