10 Shirts, 10 Cities: The Architecture Inspired Travel Wardrobe

At OAS we often look at clothes the way we look at buildings. Pattern, structure and texture shape how a piece lives, just as they shape how a building feels. Our designers travel, research and sketch with architecture in mind, drawing inspiration from the lines, colours and materials of different cities.
This guide pairs ten of our shirts with ten destinations. Some we’ve walked through ourselves, others I believe resonate with the outcome. Each match shows how a shirt’s design reflects a place’s architectural character, from Niemeyer’s concrete curves in São Paulo to Barragán’s colours in Mexico City.
Vienna, Austria - Regalia Viscose Long Sleeve
Vienna’s Secessionist movement comes alive in the Regalia shirt. Golden-brown patterns recall Klimt’s mosaics and Otto Wagner’s clean yet ornate facades. Refined and decorative, never excessive.
Made entirely of viscose, resulting in an airy, silky soft feel.
