In today's fashion world, I am afraid no one can deny that Tokyo has long been in tripartite confrontation with Paris and Milan, and has become a city with fashion discourse power.

In international stores, the status of the buyers from Tokyo is absolutely no less than that of their Marks / Spencer or Bloomingdale's counterparts in Europe and America, while Japanese fashion designers like KENZO (KENZO) and Wakubo Rei (Comme des Garcon) are competing with the top European designers.

On the face of it, Japanese designer's free and unconventional brand new fashion style is the factor that they are fighting against the western fashion world.

However, after careful investigation, these designers are obsessed with the structure of clothing and are fascinated by the form and clipping of clothing. At the same time, they are very strict with the material of clothing, and have a genuine preference for natural fibers such as cotton and linen.

In fact, behind all this is the Oriental aesthetic aesthetics and taste that are deeply rooted in the marrow.

Kapok poet: KENZO

Blooming on cotton cloth

As the first Japanese designer to break through in Paris, KENZO founded the famous fashion brand KENZO.

In the international fashion world, the title of KENZO's "kapok poet" is well known.

His interest in cotton fabric has led to the popularity of cotton clothing in the international arena. Influenced by the Japanese kimono culture, KENZO has proposed the design of western style clothes based on three-dimensional cutting, such as oversize and multi level wear. It has brought the level feeling of kimono on the same plane and the warmth of pure cotton into western suit, which has liberated the rigorous and cool tone of western style clothes.

The artist, who always wears a smile and has a head and long hair, is humorous and humorous. His unique cotton + Large Print combination has endowed KENZO with endless optimism and poetic beauty, full of imagination and enthusiasm.

KENZO almost every fashion issue is like a jungle.

On the 2010 spring and summer fashion week in Paris in the near future, KENZO used the same color but deep and varied cotton stripes, camouflage and big print, with asymmetric cutting, and the romantic green breath from the jungle was refreshing.

"Fabric magician": Lssey Miyake

The ultimate natural texture of color

Lssey Miyake Issey Miyake is known as the "fabric magician" in the fashion world. It has always been known for its harsh demands on cloth.

He has changed the pattern of high fashion and garments that have always been smooth and smooth. He likes to create various texture effects with natural materials such as white cotton cloth, knitted cotton cloth and linen.

Therefore, his works always have unique and charming colors and perfect fabric feel, that is, the "second layer skin" that he admired.

In Lssey Miyake's store, we can see that there are only a few ounces of heavy clothes, like the jewel like blue from the deep sea, such as huge shells or surging waves.

His costumes contain the shadow of the Japanese warrior and the mysterious oriental character.

He is good at using wrapping and overlapping ways to create novel and unique wrinkles.

In the spring and summer fashion week in 2010, he once again played "magic" to "play with" cotton fabrics with high purity in the palm of his hand.

Through his iconic wrinkle manipulation, it brings gorgeous and mysterious visual effects, and once again reflects the concept of "one piece of cloth".

"Alternative fashion godmother": Wakubo Rei

Adults who violate the law and discipline

Wakubo Rei Comme des Garcon is known as the "alternative fashion godmother" because of its design style.

She once said, "I am a young adult who likes to violate the law and discipline."

She is an "unbroken" loyal believer. She likes to reconstruct the functional structure of clothing thoroughly, and is keen to challenge people with countless worries and rules in a humorous way.

Her broad, black-and-white, square fashion structure does not accommodate women's curvilinear beauty. This popular way of "pleasing" is always full of sarcastic humor, and uses a large amount of knitted cotton material.

Wakubo Rei

Look at Wakubo Rei's masterpiece in the 2010 fashion week. Do you doubt the time when you came to Europe to play humorous dramas?

In addition to the iconic black and white dot and knitted pure cotton fabric, Wakubo Rei uses the solid geometry model, asymmetric overlapping innovation clipping, irregular collage, and neat lines to show the aesthetic feeling of ideology.

In her hands, the overall structure of clothing no longer emphasizes the figure and curve of the wearer, but tends to pursue appropriate freedom, and "destroy and live" in the destruction.
