concept
The designer Taro Horiuchi drew inspiration for this collection from a fusion of primitive African religions, art pieces, tattoos, and vibrant colors, creating futuristic geometric forms. The synthesis of these influences, combined with sportswear and tailoring techniques, involves layering transparent fabrics in various colors to symbolize different emotions. The collection aims to encapsulate the ambiance of a solemn, quiet, and aesthetically pleasing era. It manifests as a unique "Clothing Religion," devoted to the pursuit of God, encapsulating a spiritual essence in the artistry of fashion.
