Based on the U.S. Army’s M-1951 Fishtail Parka, the 6417 M51 Overcoat, from Maharishi, has been modified with a mandarin style collar and reconstructed in an asymmetric Kilim patchwork. Part of Maharishi’s AW20 Hill Tribe collection.
Maharishi’s AW20 Hill Tribe capsule collection nods to Francis Ford Coppola’s legendary ‘Apocalypse Now’, which popularised the Vietnamese hill tribes. The film sees Dennis Hopper as the ‘Photojournalist’ – manically disappearing into the mountains, where he finds an iconic hill tribe embroidered shirt, also reproduced for the collection in crushed hemp.
