2013年の装苑賞。日本発の最も期待できる若きデザイナーは今年、様々な意味で”ブライトな未来”を見ている様子・・ The SOEN awards, for those not in the know, is an annual celebration of the most innovative young promising designers in Japan. Hopefuls go through a rigorous portfolio and weeding-out process carried out by 8 judges that happen to be some of this country’s top designers.

Except that is,
CHLOE CELEBRATES 60 YEARS WITH A TOKYO BASH THAT PROVES THE ADAGE “YOUNG AT HEART”.
心若くして６０周年記念を祝った「クロエ」が東京で大盛り上がりのパーティーをフランス大使館で開催した！ There has been a deafening lull in the season thus far and that calls for an all-out bash. Good thing then, because it was Chloe’s 60th Anniversary and they were in the mood for partyin’. This wasn’t a call to arms for all fashionistas though, it was rather an intimate “friends-only” gathering at the
DON’T CALL ME DIVA, CALL ME DANCER. NATUSKI MARI AND MICHAEL THOMPSON PHOTO EXHIBIT IN DAIKANYAMA
ディーバなんて呼ばないで、ダンサーとお呼び。夏木マリ×マイケル・トンプソンの写真展が代官山で！ I am going to preface this post by saying that while I should stick to the point (that I’m writing about a photo exhibit), I am not sorry about making this more about women who are inspirational. …ok, fine…I’ll stick to one for now to keep this on track (but I DO love talking

MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA TELLS AVANTGARDE TIME WITH LIMITED EDITION G-SHOCK WATCH. AVAILABLE TODAY!
MAISON MARTIN MARGIELAならではのアバンギャルドな時計をG-Shockと限定でプロデュース！本日世界同時発売．．ってことで付けてみました！ The designers who work in the Maison Martin Margiela atelier famously wear long white lab-coats, as if they are scientists and researchers rather than fashion designers. It’s hard not to imagine them burning, melting and observing fabrics all day long (I am WAITING for the day when they announce a dress they
