Patchy Cake Eater

is a menswear label, launched in 2012 by Japanese designer

Shigeki Morino.

…

(image from francoiscavelier.com):

designer, shigeki morino, patchy cake eater

designer Shigeki Morino (l) and his assistant Soichiro Nakagawa (r)

…

The label name is indicative of the collection presented

at Tokyo Fashion Week,  a/w  2015-

patchwork fabrication, emotive of a feel good from ‘cake effect’.

…

 

The design aesthetics is an unique interpretative of a gender focus on fashion:

“(creating) the masculinity that a woman wearing men’s clothes exudes,

and (applying) it back to men’s fashion.”

It is a modern label with a modern design vision

which manages to be readily translatable from

runway fashion to everyday wear.

…

When asked at interview if he had any advice for other emerging designers,

Mr. Morino offered insight from his observations of recent runway presentations:

 

“… if I had to say one thing, it would be that some men’s runway shows here are deviating too far from something wearable. There has to be a balance between entertainment and what is represented should be able to be worn on the street.”

Menswear Fashion Week Travel Itinerary

Fall 2015

 

Menswear Fashion Week- Fall 2015

has arrived in Paris, France.

The Fashion Week show travels commenced with

a first stop in London for LC: M  (London Collections:  Men)

next stop was the Pitti Uomo (Florence, Italy)

and now the final leg of the menswear fashion journey

ends in Paris, France.

The Show Summations

Runway presentations in London are electric:

avant garde, forward thinking, boundary push innovation.

The atmosphere in Florence, both on and off the runway

is the epitome of style spezzatura:  cool, confident, effortless.

Now it is time to shine for the designers who show in Paris, the City of Lights.

autumn 2014, Billy Reid, Issey Miyake (MEN), Maison Martin Margiela, men's outerwear

It is not too early to consider the possibilities of autumn overcoats –

yes of course,  while still in the heat of summer swelter!

For what is fashion, but contemplation of the ‘what’s next’?

…

And the next burning seasonal sartorial query is:

How to keep out the chill and look on-point cool doing it?

…
