It was a misleading simple Sacai collection. Not at least because Chitose Abe stepped away from the runway this season, instead chose for a stable presentation of clothes in this lookbook at Sacai headquarters at left bank. She was inherent as a T-shirt, yet how can the forward-looking or concept-driven her work when on the runway, Abe makes everyday clothes. Read the slogan “All day everyday”. And this is what he has ensured underlining in the conversation: that the foundation stone of Sacai is that it is to be a wardrobe. High, sure, but there is no reason why it should not be the clothes you worn, well, all the time.
Abe, through his interpreter, explained that the initial point of the season was a white cotton Kashmiri Tuxedo, its versatility and simplicity became a stand-in for broad sacking efforts. Abe’s touch, especially his signature apparel hygdic, has become a source of inspiration for many and it is easy to close the runway. Why this can happen, in recent seasons, its runway collection was transferred to becoming concept-operated and built around a unique subject, contrary to the more widespread contribution to his body’s body-the men of the January men of the men of January or a person of a person of women from March. Still Sacai, but is presented as more specific, unique statements.
This time what was on performance in Abe’s showroom, instead, a sharp and clear reminder of the main principles of Sacai. Was was the intention to clean or reset the slate? Not at all, he said, this time translator answering the question. Instead, to show this side of the bus label. Detto exiting the runway this season – apart from switching things, no comprehensive point is being created here. Quite appropriate.
Most of the fashion are once again choosing the option of thinness, in casting for the runway and in proportion to the fabric, but not Abe. Instead, as is very exemplary, the major silhouette in this collection was fixed by a wide, balloon trouser and a voluntary sleeve. In many ways it was a collection about sleeves, each more attractive than each. They slipped and opened down or completely round for the elbow; Made by Zippers or with alternately released additional versions with hems such as double shoulder-cap and bells; Simple and curvature or complexly folded by cuts and methods, which is very surprised to describe only with words. It is difficult to see such technical skills on a runway; It was a pleasure that he was able to experience it closely.
Even more fun: After starting the day at SACAI headquarters, the fashion crowd was also called to end it, this time with a promise of Japanese food and karaoke. Some of your favorite fashion editors, campaigners, and multi-Hifanes, from Elvis and George Michael to Japanese pop and even Shakira excluded everything (or may not be the last one). As a cure, the artist D4VD, who was in appearance as a guest, decided to sing his viral hit “here with me”. The true star of the show, however, was Abe itself. He ended the night with a singing of “Empire State of Mind” with a song playing a song by guests. She was wearing a little Sakai frock, as there were many other people in the room. The undisputed proof is that his clothes are not only made to live in every day, but also to seize every moment.
