Japanese fashion label CUNE

I love Japan & it's fashion. Have you heard of Hironori Yasuda & his label CUNE?  The super creative guy started CUNE in 1994.
Yasuda don't care about what's hot this season & the latest trends. He makes what he wants, and each season he picks a seemingly arbitrary theme, one that typically has no place in the world of fashion, and designs his entire collection around it. He doesn’t think about who would wear his clothes, or how they would wear them. In fact, he even says “you don’t have to buy them.” But with two stores in Tokyo, one in Fukuoka and a thriving online shop, people seem to like his bizarre creations.

2016 – raw meat in the sky

His most recent collection last year was all about raw meat and a blue sky. We’re not entirely sure what those two things have in common, but we’ve learned not to ask. So there you have it.




2013 A/W – cabbage

2013 the designer debuted a collection inspired by cabbage. Specifically, the core – that part you have to awkwardly cut out because it’s too hard to chew. Isn't that cute ?
