japanese fashion designers

Most Japanese fashion houses are in Tokyo.
 The Japanese look is loose and unstructured, colours tend to be subtle, and richly textured fabrics. Famous Japanese designers are
  • Yohji Yamamoto,
  • Kenzo,
  • Issey Miyake, (drape and cut), and
  • Comme des Garçons's Rei Kawakubo, who developed a new way of cutting.

Yamamoto often creates designs that are very diffent to current trends. He makes clothes that are oversized from the normal silhouettes, but he varys his texture of the fabric he uses.

Kenzo

japanese designers have very heavey patterned garments usually to complement the plain base that they use. Kenzo uses his black as his base colour and adds colour over the top.
