古き良きもモダン良き：現代を感じさせるグルービーな「浅草ビート」。HARCOZA春夏2013年コレクションをご紹介！ I don’t know why I thought of talking about this today, I guess it could be the red and the green reminding me of the Christmas holidays, or the traditional time of Japanese new year, but here is the lookbook/campaign for Harcoza’s new 2013 SS collection “Asakusa Beat” 少し季節を先に進めることになるが、来春のHarcozaのコレクションの話。何故突然このことを書きたくなったかといえば、このコレクションのカラーパレットがクリスマスを彷彿とさせる赤と緑だったからかもしれないし、もしくは日本の伝統的なイメージから正月を思い起こしたのかもしれない。そんなこのコレクションのタイトルは、”浅草ビート”。 Shot in the most

THE WONDER-STRANGE OF WHITE: VISITNG THE MARTIN MARGIELA-DESIGNED HOTEL-RESTAURANT IN PARIS.
不思議かつ素敵なホワイトな世界に染まるマルタン・マルジェラによるデザインされたホテルとバーに訪れてきました。 Unless you are a die-hard fan of Martin Margiela, you probably wouldn’t know that he actually designed a hotel and restaurant in Paris. I wanted to check it out, so when I was in Paris I ventured over to Champs des Elysees and a small sidestreet where the hotel, appropriately called “The Maison des

昆虫へのホマージュとして、美しいシルエットからイメージをとった最新コレクション「INSECTA」を公開した若手天才者JOJI KOJIMAの不思議なアクセサリー観。 It’s time to warp at chic speed…to the past. November, to be exact, when Tokyo’s accessory-making prodigal son held the exhibition for his newest collection “INSECTA”. Joji rose to global status as a designer when Lady Gaga wore his mask on the cover for her Monster album. But rather than get ahead of
SISTER BOUTIQUE RELEASES COFFEE (OR, APOTHECARY) TABLE BOOK FEATURING ERIKO NAKAO
渋谷SISTERの５周年記念でナカオエリコらによるフォトシューティング写真集などを発売！ One of my favorite stores in Tokyo is “Sister” which sits above CANDY in Shibuya and often mistaken as a sub-branch of that shop. But in actuality, they are totally different stores with separate buying teams and sales people, and very different atmospheres (unless “unique” can be an atmospheric descriptor….if so then they both
