<Stylist Kanako Sato x ne Quittez pas/UPALA> Chapter 2 of this Season's Collaboration. Sophisticated Summer Wear & Jewelry for Adults.

Pasand Co., Ltd. (CEO: Mami Jin / 3-8-3 Kita-Aoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo) has announced a summer collection marking the second chapter of this season's collaboration with popular stylist Kanako Sato. This time, in addition to the apparel brand "ne Quittez pas" operated by the company, collaborative items will also be available from the jewelry brand "UPALA". Clothing reservations and jewelry sales will begin on Thursday, May 21, and clothing sales will start on Wednesday, June 3.

This project is renowned for creating a new basic style that multiplies the high-quality materials and handcrafting ne Quittez pas has cultivated domestically and internationally with Ms. Sato's minimalist aesthetic. For its 6th iteration this season, the collection unfolds in two chapters across spring and summer.

"In the spring collaboration, we proposed ne Quittez pas that can be worn in the office, but for the following summer, let's take a more relaxed approach. We created clothes and jewelry that can be comfortably enjoyed even on hot days, from city holidays to travel destinations," said Ms. Sato.

The summer collection features relaxing and comfortable wear and jewelry that still looks stylish, perfectly aligning with the adult summer vibe.

From the information embargo date on Tuesday, May 19, a special page has been released on the official brand website. It provides plenty of insights into the thoughts put into each item and snapshots of styling proposals worn by Ms. Sato herself.

<ne Quittez pas 1: Poplin Stripe Sleeveless Dress> A summer dress that combines comfortable wear with an appealing shoulder detail. The voluminous silhouette that gently flares towards the back hem is beautiful, and by applying a twist design to the shoulder, it casually covers concerns around the shoulders and arms. Tightening the included matching fabric belt creates a clean, cinched silhouette. Available in one color: Beige Stripe.

<ne Quittez pas 2: Cotton Voile Petit Zari Embroidery Top / Pants> A cool set-up that harbors a relaxed feel within a simple design. Made of ultra-comfortable cotton voile, it features a soft silhouette that seems to drape in air. The blouse's opening can be adjusted with a cord at the back, and it can also be worn off-the-shoulder. The matching bottoms are Aladdin-style pants with a gathered balloon silhouette at the hem, decorated with subtle lame embroidery, adding a touch of ne Quittez pas's characteristic craft feel to a minimalist design. Available in two colors: Beige and Charcoal.

<ne Quittez pas 3: Ponte Material Boat Neck Half Sleeve Top> The perfect balance between a T-shirt and a blouse, a new staple top for adults to wear casually. The long-sleeve cut-and-sew that was popular in the spring collaboration has been updated with half sleeves for summer. The boat neck makes the face look neat, and the balance of the wider sleeves naturally covers the body shape. Silver stitching on the back neckline serves as a subtle design point. Available in two colors: Charcoal and Light Pink.

<UPALA 1: Cloud Choker & Double Finger Ring Set> A curved choker and ring set meant to be enjoyed by mixing metals. With a soft cloud-like form, it features a uniquely UPALA design. By purposely mixing gold and silver for the choker and ring metals, it proposes a balanced, relaxed look that isn't too perfectly coordinated.

<UPALA 2: Leaf Clip Earring> Earrings with an organic, leaf-like form that offer both presence and softness. Despite their large size and presence, the brass base makes them lightweight, and we focused on comfort with a silicone-padded clip type. Finished elegantly with a matte texture. Available in two colors: Silver and Gold.
