Tomozawa Kotao x JOHN LAWRENCE SULLIVAN/PAMEO POSE | Emotional clothing that confronts new self and moves your heart

A high-ranking lady
I longed for "META LADY".

The theme of the PAMEO POSE 2022 AW collection is "META LADY". Inspired by a strong and noble meta (higher) ladies, he expresses a gothic and romantic world view. Items printed with META LADY of 10 different colors, such as the most metatal lady Marie Antoinette and the graceful fantasy lady, are proposed as a styling unique to "PAMEO POSE" with classical and punkish, feminine and manish duality. Kotao Tomozawa, dressed in a see-through blouse with a ribbon tie reminiscent of the 90s, is truly a high-ranking lady (META LADY) itself. "My usual fashion looks like a primitive person (laughs), but I like clothes quite a bit. I like the texture of the touch, the simple but strong feeling, and the interesting patterns. I really admire the world view and atmosphere created by PAMEO POSE. While watching Instagram, "It's so cute, I want to wear it someday!" It's the clothes I thought."

It's full of playfulness
Nostalgic accessory

There are plenty of accessories related to the season theme of "META LADY". The "Diary Key" series of earrings and necklaces with the motif of the key of a lady's secret diary, the large brooch of heart-biju who is particular about cutting, the "META Heart Brooch" with motifs, and the "My Grandma's Neckless" with an antique style inspired by jewellery that has been handed down from generation to generation to generation. The "Meta Lady Blouse" blouse, printed with portraits of ladies from various countries, is an item that symbolizes this season's PAMEO POSE.

The color that painter Kotato Tomozawa wants.
I was fascinated by white and black.

"The color that jumps unconditionally is surprisingly black. It's the root…It can't be cut off. I think so in my own way. Last time, I exhibited "Monochrome", but after all there are things in black that can be found infinitely. There are various blacks, such as glossy black, shiny black, nety black. But if I compare myself to color…It may be white. Is white really obedient? Too delicate colors that make various changes to various small stimulations. Also, white can be any color, but it is also a color that will never be killed. If you compare yourself to color, let's say "titanium white." This is the color that I use most. It may be any color, but in fact it feels the strongest. It may be the color you want to do so."

"I have a picture and myself. I can't escape anywhere."
When I drew the most shining picture

"At around March or April of last year, I stayed in the form of a stay production and prepared for the exhibition. I want to draw about six big pictures at once. There was no bath or window, and electricity could not be turned off 24 hours a day.…。 There was no bed, so lay the cardboard on the floor. I was sleeping on cardboard for two to three weeks during my stay. I drew a picture with a tatter, but the picture at that time was the most shining. "I have only pictures and myself. I remember drawing while thinking that I can't escape anywhere. It's the hardest and most enjoyable memories."

"I think the various cultures that I touched as adults, such as manga, movies, and professional wrestling, have shaped my own way of thinking now. When I was a child, I was super high, and I was always crazy. Actually, I still want to run around naked now (laughs), but when I grow up, I can't always explode. I think I'm drawing a kind of violent picture that I'm on my own, but in a sense it's a sense of peace."
