At "Rakuten Fashion Week TOKYO 2020 S/S," held last October, Matsui used Takaomi's installation "Nobono Izumichi" as the main inspiration for his show, which took place in a venue where the sound of glass pieces clashing together echoed.


T-shirts: ¥23,100 each

This exhibition is linked to Nobuyuki Matsui's Spring/Summer 2020 season theme, "Water Mirror." Clothing that was scheduled to be discarded is connected using the "Hachisashi" stitch, and an installation is recreated using a hand-dyed indigo carpet and countless glass chimes suspended from the ceiling. In addition, T-shirts with the "Hachisashi" stitch applied to the collar and hem will be exhibited and sold exclusively Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building .

We invite you to enjoy a space where the "clothing that can be cherished for a long time," which Mr. Matsui aims for, born from tradition and craftsmanship, and the "beautiful art" that embodies natural energy, resonate together.
