This Fall season, Issey Miyake ironically reminds us Ready-To-Wear original meaning : On the earliest Ages of this social fashion liberation, Ready-To-Wear was more a practical and easy way to create single-use minded garments from which patterns weren't made to models measures.Dai Fujiwara decided to bring us back to an Era where Pret-à-Porter was an easy way to fabric clothes, breaking with Haute Couture time, when fitting, sizing and cutting ruled garment creative process.
Developing a collection around the origami theme, Dai Fujiwara created for his last season a show alternating paper dresses with the illusion of fabric.
Creating phantoms of garments in showcasing origami-like dresses, Fujiwara signed this collection on a piece of sheet, writing his name on walking paper pattern dresses, saving his last words before leaving Issey Miyake's artistic direction.
Revisiting the house architectural codes and intricately detailed pattern-making techniques, Fujiwara gaves origami a timeless dimension.
Following on stage paper-patterns silhouettes by fabric versions of those single-use dresses, Fujiwara printed on paper a timeless fashion message.
While this fashion week season has been placed under goodbyes signs, the designer presents a timeless show, like to underline his fashion influence in Miyake's House.Then, he reminds us the Ephemera of fashion, displaying for a last time his words, placing some dots to a fashion language in which he has always been fluent, living behind what will always remain eternal : his Style !
Fujiwara added depth to his collection in nurturing his patterns with M.C Escher's influences, living origami dresses with optical illusions of jackart.
White dresses are outstandingly presented in Black background silhouettes, walking in tune with a childhood flavored little ditty.
