POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF) 8.0 COLLECTION

POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF) continues its progressive evolution with the launch of 8.0 collection. Under the captivating theme of ‘Romance (浪漫)’, the 8.0 collection merges technical and experimental design elements with natural materials. The collection reinterprets PAF’s signature designs, introducing water-resistant vegan suede technical jacket and shorts, asymmetrical diagonal-cut knit cardigans, and leather jackets with organically shaped pockets. Many new categories have also been added, such as denims, sleeveless, parkas, sweats, bags, and beanies.

A notable feature of the 8.0 collection is the introduction of three types of bags (crossbody, tote, and handbag) through a special collaboration with CVSM(CoverSomeone), a company renowned for developing smart materials under the motto of “wearable tech.” These innovative three-dimensional bags feature inflatable linings, allowing them to be styled in various forms depending on the degree of inflation, while also providing added protection for one’s belongings from external impacts.

The 8.0 collection made its grand showcase on June 21st during the SS25 Paris Fashion Week. The event was held in the Marais district, where 32 models showcased the collection to an exclusive audience of 150 guests. The atmosphere was further enriched by a live performance from violinist *Stefan Plewniak, whose music harmonized beautifully with the collection, creating an unforgettable experience.
