W'Menswear was founded by Lauren Yates in 2015, born out of a desire to produce high quality, heritage-inspired garments for women - with a nuanced and ever-evolving perspective on femininity at the intersections of fashion, workwear, military garments, and history. Originally operating out of a converting shipping container in Bangkok, the brand has grown substantially with each new collection, employing specialty and custom fabrics as well as partnering with local workshops & artisans.

The 2024 collection, titled Diesel Fueled Defiance, is inspired by women who were on the forefront of automobile racing during the Civil Rights movements of the 1960s. Facing down particularly fierce and widespread sexist sentiments, these women brought about advancement for all women through their relentless pursuit of speed and the feeling of adventure.

The Fly Pocket Skirt is a symmetrical full skirt with 5 large pockets external pocket as well as two hand pockets and a double front closure. It has an A-line silhouette, with custom metal hardware throughout as well as contrasting cotton trims, all nods to some of the vintage military and workwear styles that inspire this original piece.

The deadstock Japanese tweed body is made with a blend of 70% wool, 10% nylon, 10% acrylic, and 10% polyester - a comfortably warm and durable fabric reminiscent of vintage flannels and featuring a neppy herringbone pattern. The pockets and belt loops are cut from a contrasting olive cotton fabric..
