ファッション的に、日本は一つの国で地獄と天国が同時に存在してるよう・・？装苑で連載中「2.5次元ライフ」の第５話 “HERE AND NOW” をチェック！ Can hell be heaven, at the same time? People who live in Tokyo: “Augghh its so #%$€! conservative here!” People who don’t: “Holy sh*t theres so much freedom in Tokyo!” Um????3 地獄と天国が実は紙一重しか隔てていなかったら、と想像してみて欲しい。 東京に住む人が言うには、“日本って本当にコンサバで嫌んなっちゃう！”その一方、海外の人は“日本ってなんてフリーダムな国なんだ！” もはや紙一重どころか、一つの国で地獄と天国が同時に存在してるよう。 Photos by MAMI TANABE When it comes to fashion, culture is a
MASSIVE GLOBAL CREATIVE PROJECT “CANDYCOOL by FURLA” KICKS OFF IN TOKYO WITH ME! DESIGNING 2.5D CHAOS ON A CANDY BAG.
フルラの #CANDYCOOL 世界規模クリエイティブなプロジェクトの第一戦は東京で！そして、なんと私とコラボ！！「2.5次元」的なカオスな東京をあの人気キャンディーバッグで表現してみたら世が賑わいた？！ What IS creativity??? For me, it’s having one foot in the trends and one foot outside that box. 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

TOKYO FASHION WEEK 2013 AW: THE OUTFITS. DAY 5 IS SUPER HERO SUPER CHIC WITH GROUND ZERO
東京ファッションウィークのコーディネートダイアリー4日目: スーパーヒーローのスーパーシックby GROUND ZERO I have always wanted to secretly try cosplay. I never have because I don’t have any characters in mind and my knowledge on the subject is just so very shallow. But you know, I have always felt like I’m doing a form of costume play but just in a high fashion costume sense every time I get
TOKYO FASHION WEEK 2013 AW: THE OUTFITS. DAY 4 IS WHEN I MASTERED THE ART OF SEQUINS WITH MURUA
東京ファッションウィークのコーディネートダイアリー4日目: スパンコール達人になった日 by MURUA I should give every outfit I wear a number according to how easy it is to sit in something or not. I couldn’t sit in the Anrealage cage dress on Sunday so that gets a “sit-able” number of 0. And the EMODA dress yesterday was raining beads every time I moved

東京ファッションウィークのコーディネートダイアリー3日目: モッズなかわいいクチュールは実はEMODA!? “You’re best dressed! Where’s my photographer?? Can I put you on Facebook??”I felt honored to be called out by Vivienne Tam at her anniversary party tonight at the Mercedes Benz showroom in Roppongi, but its easy to be best dressed when everyone else is wearing your ownsprong/summer 2013 ss clothes that you’ve seen already
TOKYO FASHION WEEK DAY 1: GETTING CAGED IN MONOTONE
東京ファッションウィークのコーディネートダイアリー１日目：アンリアレイジのケージドレスで「モノトーンモンスター」 I am a fan of Hikarie as a venue for Tokyo Fashion Week, perhaps because I am a sucker for beautiful night views and the shows are held on the 11th floor surrounded by tall glass ceilings here. It’s only the second season here, but being stuck in the basement at Midtown Tokyo
