Kotao Tomozawa × John Lawrence SULLIVAN/PAMEO POSE| Emotional clothing that confronts a new self

Move the emotions of the wearer.
Decadent essence

The theme of the John Lawrence SULLIVAN 2022 AW is “Deceadents”. We dare to break down the concept of tailoring that the brand has been pursuing, and it is not a commercial approach, such as the cluting silhouette born from it, but also a collection that expresses even the exuding atitudes. In the women's collection, there are also voluminous and warm materials that make you want to miss the cold, such as Steiff fur and raised materials that reproduce the luster like Velvet. “This season’s look is degenerate.…Kotao Tomozawa, who says that he is a messy type or a little intoxicated," says he usually loves the outerwear of "John Lawrence SULLIVAN". The short blouson of the fur she wore creates a beautiful three-dimensional feel just by wearing it by arranging the fur inside, and you can feel the tailoring, which is exactly the true essence of the brand. In addition, Pyson's pointed pumps are designed to make you feel uncomfortable and anxious by cutting the soles on the front. The essence of the 2022 AW theme “DECADENTS” is reflected everywhere.

In a beautiful, solid space with intelligence
Confronting a new self

Started in 2003 as a menswear brand based on tailored products. "JOHN LAWRENCE SULLIVAN" continues to pursue the potential of menswear by constantly expanding the tailored style while keeping the concept of a male image where strength and elegance live. The women's line also started in the 2010 SS season, expressing Sharp's sophisticated female image, incorporating the tailored technology cultivated in menswear. Here at Shibuya PARCO store, we develop a full lineup of men and women, respectively. Solid, industrial space like an art gallery, such as a mirror on the wall and a ceiling with piping out, seems to be telling the philosophy of designer Arashi Yanagawa. Wearing new clothes and accessories, confronting new self and knowing new emotions - an emotional space that moves such a mind.

Assert your identity.
Collaboration with YOSHiKO CREATiON

"John Lawrence SULLIVAN" and "YOSHiko CreatiON" are continuously collaborating. The collaboration items released in the 2022 AW collection reinterpret the nail accessories announced during the 2017 AW season, and have also developed a total of 13 items, including necklaces, rings, earrings, and earcuffs. The cross motif made from nails was inspired by the 108 Crosses work "108 Crosses" made by artist Mitsugi Sato using drifting objects and waste materials. Kotao's "Irregular chain earring" is a earring that combines multiple different chains. Say your identity casually in your ears.

The ideal person is his mother, Mimiyo Tomozawa.
A person who teaches the importance of being “punk”

“What is beautiful? I think it’s “as it is” — I think it’s beautiful. What should I say?…You said it was cut off. For example, the material. I think it would be beautiful if the clothes are the contents of the person who wears the clothes have a proper axis. The ideal human image I would like to see my mother (Mimiyo Tomozawa) as well. My mother probably affects me in everything. There's something like the courage to break things. I mean, my mother is a punk. It's very exciting. It gives me a lot of hints about "being punk" in expression. In fact, it seems that you understand too much of everyday casual speech (laughs). I know, but always mad ideas come out naturally. I want to be that kind of adult too.”
