A collection that evokes the theme of "bloom" throughout.



What was the theme/concept for the 2013 Spring/Summer collection?

It was "bloom."

Please tell us about the theme/concept.

Bloom = to blossom, in full bloom, to flourish... We developed items featuring floral prints transferred onto shirts and knits, items using the brand's symbolic icon of blue roses, and items with colors that express both the gentleness and strength of flowers through various processing techniques. The collection as a whole evokes the theme of "bloom."


What are the key looks (coordinations)?

A light and spring-like coordination (bottom center) featuring a shirt coat with special heather dyeing and shorts made of original tri-heather fabric. It's paired with a colorful stole with a floral print transfer and a metallic leather clutch bag with a unique texture achieved by peeling off the pigment through buffing.
