Fujiwara's WABI SABI

Guiliano Fujiwara 2010 Fall/Winter collection definately my favourite collection so far... Layers of quality constructed garments, leathers, heavy knits and tailored garments made a supremely strong collection. The high tops sneakers look pretty interesting too, remind me of Rick Owens with the oversized detailed tongues. Check out the philosophy below:
In 1986 Giuliano Fujiwara made the debut in Milan. The initiator of the brand, Yoshiaki Fujiwara, made a large influence not only in Italy but also the fashion industry in the world as for a new concept "Minimalism".
The concept of Minimalism, the tradition, the technology and the spirits come down today and the successor, Masataka Matsumura starts new Giuliano Fujiwara.
The one that flows to the basis of Guiliano Fujiwara that expresses the present age and the future while making good use of the tailoring technology with the tradition of Italy is "WABI SABI".
The exquisite expression of the spirit of WABI SABI is a beauty of the shadow which is concealed on the other side of shining beauty and new shape invented from the style that seems unbalanced. Guiliano Fujiwara is the world of the new mode that Masataka Matsumura proposes.
WABI SABI Japanese aesthetic of impermanence characterised by asymmetry, asperity, simplicity, modesty, intimacy and natural processes. A Japanese culture of WABI SABI derived from ZEN to be re-created in modernised concept.
