Amazon Fashion Week Tokyo 2017 Autumn/Winter is not quite over yet, but since I won’t be attending any more shows for the week due to my work schedule, I decided to do an early recap of the shows I did attend. Fashion Week always proves to be an exciting and inspiring experience, from the runway shows to seeing the other attendees’ fashion. Even though spring is just around the corner and while I am ready to push aside the heavy coats and scarves, these collections got me skipping forward to the next autumn/winter season.
Amazon Fashion Week Tokyo 2017 Autumn/Winter はまだ明日まで続きますが、私は仕事のスケジュールの関係で他のショーには出席出来ないため、今回のファッションウィークを早速まとめてみました。ファッションウィークは、ショーから周りのインフルエンサーの私服までいつでも刺激的なので、楽しみにしているイベントのひとつです。あとちょっとで春なのに、以下のコレクションを拝見した後、また秋冬ファッションに引かれてしまいました。
HARE 2017 Collection
Because 90% of the shows are located at Hikarie in Shibuya, I was surprised when the invitation for the HARE collection was to be held at a venue in Shinagawa. To my surprise, the venue and the show turned out to be a lot better than expected – there was at least 3 times more space for the runway and guests, making it a very energetic and interesting show for even more guests to enjoy. After viewing this show, HARE has quickly become one of my favorite ready-to-wear brands for the color schemes, use of beautiful furs, and the oversized silhouettes, especially for the women’s collection. For more photos from the runway, go to Fashionsnap.com.
9割以上のランウェイは渋谷のヒカリエで行われるので、HAREのショーが品川のロケーションだったのにびっくりしました。ですが、ヒカリエより全然広いスペースで行われたので、とても素敵なショーとなりました。始めてこのブランドのコレクションを拝見しましたが、すぐに好きになりました。シックな色合い、綺麗なファー、オーバーサイズなメンズライクなシルエットはドツボでした。もっと写真を見たい方はFashionsnap.comをご覧ください。
ACUOD by CHANU 2017 Collection
The ACUOD by CHANU show was by far my favorite execution and collection. I actually had the opportunity to meet Chanu, the designer, a couple months back. I was so surprised when I found out he is still a student at the prestigious Bunka Fashion College! Having already presented a his collections at Fashion Week as a student is quite unheard of, and I was blown away by his runway show. He had a human beatboxing and dancer duo KAIRI & GENDAI as the opening act (which was amazing, by the way), followed by the runway and one of the models standing in the middle of the runway throwing joker cards as the finale. As you can see, the theme for his collection was black & white, and his style is characterized by the joker-like masks, chains and zippers for the ultimate edgy street style look. So much creativity and originality in one show. Bravo! For more photos of the show, go to Fashionsnap.com.
ACUOD by CHANUのショーとコレクションには一番ハマりました。数ヶ月前に、デザイナーのChanuさんにお会いすることができ、まだ文化服飾学校の学生だということを聞いた時はびっくりしました。学生なのにファッションウィークでコレクションを出すのは、大分珍しいことです。しかも、噂で聞いていた通り、彼のショーは本当に迫力がありものすごくかっこよかったです。オープニングには、ビートボクシングとダンサーのKAIRI & GENDAIのパーフォーマンスでスタート。ランウェイの後は、男性のモデル1人が真ん中に立ち、トランプらしきカードをばらまき、そのままランウェイを去るという、ファッションショーではあまりないパフォーマンスを披露しました。コレクションのテーマはモノクロで、モデル達が着用していたマスクはジョーカーを意識していました。Chanuさんはガラスでできたチェーンやジッパーなど、エッジの効いた小物やアクセントで知られています。クリエイティブでオリジナリティー溢れるショーでした!もっと写真を見たい方は、Fashionsnap.comをご覧ください。
VIVIANO SUE / IIMISA 2017 Collection
Viviano Sue is the designer for House of Viviano Sue based in Tokyo. He is a graduate of Bunka Fashion College, and started his career in fashion by designing bridal wear and couture, but now he also designs for prêt-à-porter. The theme for this collection was “plumage,” which was portrayed by the beautiful feathered headpieces that were designed by IIMISA. The collection also incorporates high quality furs, lace and wool designs inspired by nature. The intricate handiwork in the headpieces and the voluminous silhouettes really drew my attention. Such a dreamy and inspirational collection! For more photos, go to Fashionsnap.com.
Viviano Sueは東京をベースとしているHouse of Viviano Sueのデザイナー。文化ファッション大学院大学を修了した後、自身のブランドを設立し、主にブライダルやクチュールをデザインしていましたが、今ではプレタポルテもデザインしています。今回のコレクションのテーマ「PLUMAGE」は「束縛から解放する」。自分を信じ、自分を受け入れることによる「解放」を表現します。IIMISAとのコラボレーションで、plumageを表すフェザーワークを使ったヘッドピースがとても特徴的でした。自然からインスピレーションを受けているボリュームのあるシルエットや、高級ファーとウールのデザイン全てに魅了されました。夢のある素敵なコレクションでした!もっと写真を見たい方は、Fashionsnap.comをご覧ください。

I’ve really been looking forward to this post. These designers are so original and creative, I love getting inspired. I really love the Hare collection, the gentleman with the black wide brimmed hat and mask reminds me of an anime character.

Am I blown away? Yes! Why? Because I apparently have a soft spot for anything Japanese and it’s not without a good reason. Japanese design, craftsmanship and culture is beyond inspiring and as for someone who hasn’t even been to Tokyo, going to FW in Tokyo will actually be on my bucket list (after first having visited it and ticking off all the touristy stuff I want to see as well). As for the collections HARE caught my attention as they had furs for men, something I’ve been longing for and looking for all over. Now I know where to find one! Thanks for a lovely recap, Samantha!

I love male fashion and sometimes, I wish I could just dress my boyfriend up all day lol. Great post love.

This looked like a fun event. Looks like a fantastic collection! It’s always good to see menswear on the runway. If only my husband wasn’t built like a linebacker with huge quads. lol These would not suit him, but I still enjoy seeing innovation with mens apparel, and this collection looks great.
