A.W.A.K.E. MODE Asymmetric Oversized Collar Top Black
Transform your wardrobe into a canvas of modern art. The Asymmetric Oversized Collar Top Black by A.W.A.K.E. MODE showcases Natalia Alaverdian’s genius for deconstructed tailoring and unexpected, architectural silhouettes.
Cut in a fitted silhouette, this cropped top features long sleeves with open cuff detailing and a distinctive oversized asymmetric collar. One shoulder sits slightly open, enhancing the sculptural neckline and introducing a subtle directional edge to the close-to-body form.
Shown here with Slit Knee Trousers Black.
Editor’s Styling Note
“A.W.A.K.E. MODE pieces are brilliantly complex. Because this Tops features such striking asymmetry and conceptual draping, you must anchor it with simplicity. Do not compete with the garment’s architecture. Pair it with a stark, minimalist heel (like a square-toe mule) and a sleek, unembellished handbag. Let the geometry of the clothing be the sole focus.”
— Gemma Deeks, Fashion Editor at Luxury Shoes

How to Style the A.W.A.K.E. MODE Asymmetric Oversized Collar Top Black
-
Ground the Asymmetry:
If you are wearing an asymmetrical or multi-paneled A.W.A.K.E. MODE skirt, pair it with a fitted, sleek top (like a fine-rib turtleneck) to balance the volume. -
Architectural Footwear:
Enhance the conceptual nature of the clothing by wearing footwear with sharp, distinct lines, such as square-toe boots or sculptural wedge heels. -
Restrained Accessorizing:
Avoid loud prints or heavy, competing jewelry. The focus should remain entirely on the garment’s unique tailoring and draping.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does A.W.A.K.E. MODE stand for?
A.W.A.K.E. is an acronym that stands for “All Wonderful Adventures Kindle Enthusiasm.” The name reflects founder Natalia Alaverdian’s playful, storytelling approach to conceptual fashion design.
How do A.W.A.K.E. MODE clothes fit?
A.W.A.K.E. MODE generally fits true to size using standard UK/European sizing. However, because the brand is famous for “deconstructed” fashion, some pieces feature intentional oversized draping, asymmetrical hemlines, or complex pleating that creates a unique, non-traditional silhouette.
