In an exclusive behind-the-scenes interview, the designer of Nami from One Piece shares the inspiration behind her iconic outfits. The design combines elements of summer fashion with an adventurous spirit, reflecting the beauty of the ocean.
“I wanted Nami to reflect not just her personality but her connection to the sea,” explains the designer. Nami’s loose white shirt, with rolled-up sleeves, symbolizes the freshness of summer and the freedom that comes from the ocean, while high-waisted shorts elegantly accentuate her figure.
The use of accessories like gold earrings and ocean-themed necklaces adds an additional dimension to her look. “Accessories are vital,” the designer says. “They not only complement the outfit; they tell the character's story.”
Regarding trends, the designer mentions, “Comfortable and breathable pieces are essential. With the rise of active fashion, I wanted Nami to encapsulate that spirit.” The combination of a black tank top and sports pants perfectly illustrates this design philosophy.
