Kozue Akimoto and John Lawrence Sullivan He wears the hot feelings hidden in the design of the edge

Living in a solid space,
Strength and elegant

"John Lawrence Sullivan" is an industrial space that does not dare to put out a shop sign and has a strong presence in the industrial space that uses the warehouse as it is. It is a directly managed store with a full line of men's and women's. The women's line, which started from SS in 2010, features a masculine style that incorporates the basic concept of menswear centered on tailoring into women. There are a lot of women's line items at this Shibuya PARCO store, so you should be able to meet one item that is a bit different from other stores.

Men's or Women's
“If you like yourself, wear whatever you want.”

"Even now, I used to wear men's clothes better than in the past," Akimoto appeared on this day with a men's-sized jacket with a leopard pattern dress like JOHN LAWRENCE SULLIVAN. "Don't be caught by men, ladies, or genre, I think you can wear whatever you like. I think Shibuya and Harajuku are especially such cities. Even if you have a shop like Shibuya PARCO, one of the good things is that you can get to know new brands along the way, discover and meet."

The inspiration is
From a German genius film director and choreographer

This season, Sullivan released a collection inspired by the performance of German film director Wim Wenders' Wings of Desire, as well as the performance of German contemporary dance choreographer and dancer Pina Bausch. The long coat, which shines with brand-like tailoring technology, emphasizes the waist by decorating the fold with a pearl button or putting together a gathering with a stitch, expressing its world view. "I like the world view of the designer (Yanagawa) Arashi. The denim jacket is a casual item, but when you add your belt there, it's a roughshi! Women's denim shirt and men's denim shirt jacket. Sullivan's unique choice of men and ladies is also the most attractive."

Add spices to the styling
Original accessories

In the center of the floor, accessories and accessories are lined up on blocks that are placed without intentionally orderly. Pearl studs belts, jacquard scarves in collaboration with "MONTMARTRE NEW YORK" (Montmartre New York), and messaging caps with bottle openers are all items that feel the underlying elements of the brand, such as industrial music and dark subculture.

What constitutes "Kozue Akimoto"
Thinking about the creator

Despite wearing clothes of various tastes, her appearance that we see is always "Kozue Akimoto". "I've been through a variety of clothing genres, even if I don't know it until now. Looking back, even though the genre is different, what I like fundamentally has not changed since ancient times. Even if you combine street, mode, punk, and different genres, the base is solid, so will it look like me? I think it's." So what do you care about when Mr. Akimoto chooses clothes? I asked a question frankly. “I basically don’t wear black clothes. Over the past few years, I have been conscious of whether I like not only brands but also designers. Not only that I like design, but also because I want to wear clothes made by Arashi like Sullivan this time, when I go to the show, I will talk directly, go to dinner, go to the office, etc.…。 I'm only a fan, but I want to return my full power to those who like it, I want to support it! I love the love of fashion, the love of brands, the love of people, and the relationship that I love as such a person."
