Experience the "Future" Championed by the Brand
Mina Perhonen creates clothing by first developing fabrics from original designs, and actively engages in material and technological development in collaboration with textile production areas both domestically and internationally.
At SPIRAL, following "Particles" in 2002 and "In Progress" in 2010, this marks the third large-scale Mina Perhonen exhibition, "1∞Mina Kakeru." The exhibition space, with its spatial design by Tsuyoshi Tane (DGT), allows visitors to experience the "future championed by the brand" through Mina Perhonen's past activities and its ongoing challenges across various fields beyond fashion.
During the exhibition period, three special shops will open at SPIRAL. In addition to accessories such as bags and brooches made from archival textiles, special dresses created for the exhibition, furniture, and home products will be sold, alongside various items linked to the exhibited works.
Mina Perhonen Exhibition Limited Shops Open
A limited-edition exhibition shop, "Showcase," opens on the first floor of SPIRAL. In a living room setting that embodies Mina Perhonen's worldview, visitors can purchase the exhibited products.
Furthermore, limited "Mina Kakeru" items specially created for the exhibition will be sold at the SPIRAL 1st floor entrance and the SPIRAL Market on the 2nd floor.
In conjunction with the exhibition, during the event period, "Pierre Hermé Paris Aoyama" (1-2F La Porte Aoyama, 5-51-8 Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo) will offer a limited-edition "Macaron Day" macaron box featuring Mina Perhonen's designs, in collaboration with the charity event "Macaron Day," for which Akira Minagawa serves as this year's ambassador.
