MBFW Tokyo - John Lawrence Sullivan 2015 AW

John Lawrence Sullivan 2015 Fall/Winter at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Tokyo.

John Lawrence Sullivan is a men's and women's brand designed by Arashi Yanagawa, a former professional boxer. Established in 2003, this brand is known for producing edgy styles while maintaining traditional elements, with a main focus on masculine taste. I was in awe at the entire collection - I love traditional looks with a modern twist. Each look had subtle details, whether it was in the color, the silhouette, or the accessories. The coats were definitely my favorite, especially that metallic, out-of-this-world one. I think each of these looks perfectly matched the futuristic hair and makeup that was explained during my backstage visit. Also, it goes to show that women look great in mens-inspired fashion!


ファッションウェークで最後に拝見させたランウェイ、John Lawrence Sullivan 2015 AW. デザイナーのArashi Yanagawaが２００３年に設立し、エッジの効いた、テーラードデザインが特徴の男性像を基本的にコンセプトとしたブランドです。このコレクションを目にして、まさにその通りと実感しました。メンズもウィメンズも、きりっとしたラインの綺麗なルックばかりでした。トラディショナルでもあり、でもモダンな感じがとても伝わってきました。メタリックのコートなど、とても未来的な印象。ヘアメイクと相性抜群の、素晴らしいランウェイでした！

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Tokyo - Christian Dada 2015 AW

Happy Fashion Week! This week is Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Tokyo, and I finally made my way to Shibuya Hikarie to attend my first show of the week - Christian Dada 2015 AW. 

Christian Dada is a brand launched in 2010 with their AW collection by designer Masanori Morikawa, and has since then created many eye-catching pieces for celebrities such as Lady Gaga.  After seeing all the beautiful looks from this show, it quickly became a favorite. For one, I usually prefer deep, more luxurious-looking colors like blacks and burgundies, and fur accessories and outerwear, I believe, are a must for fall/winter. With the right balance of feminine silhouettes, detailed prints and the perfect amount of edge, this collection truly embodied the essence of the Christian Dada brand.  I especially enjoyed the embroidered details along the jacket sleeves, as well as the Chinese dragon prints. These subtle details always make a collection more interesting!
