FROM BALLOONS TO LEGOS, NEW FASHION WORK FROM DAISY BALLOON ルーンにレゴ、デザイナー兼アーティストのDAISY BALLOONによるファッション新作がどれも目新しく刺激的。
Rie Hosokai calls herself a balloon artist, although most of her floaty sculptures take the form of dresses and gowns. So then it was a surprise to me to open up one of my favorite technology blogs this morning and see her and her partner Takashi Kawada’s work as duo “Daisy Balloon” being featured for
THE CHICEST VIVE VAGINA. NOT WHAT YOU THINK BUT MAYBE WHAT YOU THINK. 今やネットで話題、でも謎めいたVIVE VAGINAとは一体どういうブランド？

It’s imagination, it’s surprise, and it makes you feel EMOTION. It can also be strange and draw criticism for being too avantgarde. All of this is creativity to me. クリエイティビティとは何ぞや？私にとってのクリエイティビティとは、トレンドを踏襲しながらもそれと相反する要素を融合させるイマジネーション、サプライズ精神、そしてひいては人々の感情を揺さぶるものだと考えている。時には風変わりだと揶揄され、アヴァンギャルドすぎると批判を浴びるものがあるが、これらも私にとっては立派なクリエイティビティなのだ。 So when FURLA
