A "Black Box" Filled with the Splendor of Fashion



As you descend the slope, the "black box" that appears before you bears RESTIR in large letters, with "3F KISHIN SHINOYAMA STUDIO" inscribed below. Hiroyuki Shimizu, Director and General Manager of RESTIR Holdings, states, "After operating at Tokyo Midtown for seven years, we wanted to change our image and express RESTIR's creations for the new era. This relocation and reopening embodies our desire to change and evolve." We encourage you to visit the new shop, which offers a completely different image from the previous RESTIR at Midtown, and discover its details for yourself.

The concept for the new boutique is "Black Container Box." Its exterior, featuring a matte black steel material for the outer walls and doors, evokes a giant black container, creating a striking presence. The new floor layout and interior design promise an exciting experience, distinct from the former RESTIR.

The three floors—B1F, 1F, and 2F—each draw inspiration from major global cities that are key to fostering fashion and art. The theme for the basement floor, "MENS FLOOR," is a New York studio; the first floor, "GALLERY," is a Tokyo gallery; and the second floor, "WOMENS FLOOR," is a Parisian salon. Each space offers a unique atmosphere and character, inviting exploration.
