Masaya Kushino "Bird-witched" New Collection



I saw the lecture by Masaya Kushino (the Designer of MasayaKushino) & Masataka Hosoo (Director  of Hosoo, a Kyoto-based textile company)

Masaya Kushino talked about his new collection "BIRD-WICHED" and his older collections. The new shoes made by custom made Nishijin brocaded by the Kyoto-based textile company, Hosoo. Masaya Kushino and Masataka Hosoo tried new textiles got inspiration from "Ito Jakuchu". I really love Jakuchu, so excited. 

Masataka Hosoo introduced his company history, and new works with world luxury brand. This time, He also collaborated MIHARAYASUHIRO. how cool the textiles?! 





We could touch "BIRD-WHICHED" brass heels. Impact of casting like the leg of a real bird!! If weight differs also as three, I imagined how I feel when I wear those shoes. Especially the form of a bird, I can't imagine yet.
The next time I visit to Kyoto,  I would like to go to see the weave machine of HOSOO.

FUTURE BEATY -日本ファッション:不連続の連続- @京都国立近代美術館(MoMAK)




I returned from Kyoto, but now still be excited. Do you know the history of the Japanese high fashion?? Of course I was studying by self once, but I could see the exhibition which such many collections have concentrated for the first time. I visited Kyoto for FUTURE BEAUTY -The Traditional of Reinvent in Japanese Fashion- Exhibition at The National Museum of Modern Art, Kyoto.

このギュギュッと詰まった日本ファッションは見応え満点。2010年ロンドン、2011年ミュンヘンそして、2012年に東京都現代美術館(MOT)で行われた巡回展である「FUTURE BEAUTY」が 新たな作品を加え バージョンアップ。100点以上もの作品が並ぶ会場は圧巻。行けば確実に満足して帰れます。会場すぐはコムデギャルソン(川久保玲)山本耀司でスタート。☆全て敬称略させていただきます。





個人的に何度拝見しても 1980年代のトップデザイナーのファッションのオーラには息をのみます。独特の緊張感、作品の空間が違う色に見えて来る様な造形力。拝むという言葉がぴったり。そして次々と歴史的な作品が登場。年代と作者を確認しながら 一つずつ見て行くのが楽しい。自分の知識との当てっこゲームのような気持ちで見るもよし、こんな服が世の中にあるとは!と驚くもよし。会場を撮影させていただいたので一部をご覧ください↓
