16 "Genderless" Items Unveiled
The collaborative line "yoshio kubo | OPENING CEREMONY" merges OPENING CEREMONY's key concept of the Olympics with Yoshio Kubo's strength in sports-inspired fashion. Under the concept "FIVE RINGS TRAVEL," each season will focus on a past Olympic host city, drawing inspiration for its patterns and graphics. For the debut collection, the focus is on Calgary, Canada.
The debut collection utilizes fabrics printed with fantastical Calgary landscapes, featuring auroras seen from an airplane window, and includes quilted coats, down jackets, and sweatshirts.
Further offerings include stadium jumpers with "CALGARY" embroidered in a sporty font, T-shirts featuring the maple leaf, a symbol of Canada, printed with the concept logo "FIVE RINGS TRAVEL," jersey sets with meticulous attention to pattern and detail, and Yoshio Kubo's signature star T-shirts in Olympic colors. A total of 16 "genderless" items, suitable for all genders, will be available.
Following its pre-sale at OPENING CEREMONY OMOTESANDO, "yoshio kubo | OPENING CEREMONY" will be available at LUMINE Shinjuku Store 2 (2F) and Shibuya PARCO Store starting Friday, September 25th, and at NU Chayamachi Store starting Saturday, September 26th. The Nagoya PARCO midi Store will carry the collection from Saturday, September 26th.
Yoshio Kubo, the brand by designer Yoshio Kubo, embodies his desire to "pursue unprecedented patterns and details," projecting his vision onto his collections using techniques honed during his couture experience. We invite you to discover the allure of these garments at OPENING CEREMONY.
