Chiodo – Melbourne at I, Wanderer

Chiodo is a menswear shop in Melbourne that designs and manufacturers clothing with fine fabrics and unexpected details. Designer Andrew Chiodo takes a conservative icon, like a business shirt, and adds unconventional twists like zippers, buttons or patchwork fabrics. His menswear line includes shirts, pants and t-shirts with additional designer labels offered including Yohji Yamamoto, Comme des Garcons, Junya Watanabe, among others. Here’s the part I like about Chiodo’s designs. On closer inspection, what looks ordinary is actually designed with humorous and irreverent details, giving each piece a singular personality.
