As Spring approaches, Freshness visited Japanese designer Tsutomu Takahashi, a well known figure within the Tokyo fashion circle. As the creative director of seesway satiate, an Indie fashion label with a well balanced collection of classic materials fused with not-so-classic silhouettes of urban style, Takahashi created a line of merchandises that is suitable for Tokyoites who desire a bit less ordinary design for their everyday wear.
A few items stood out in this most recent collection, including the VERTEX OUT Jacket, which took on the ever popular varsity jacket form. However, instead the usual wool/fleece composition, seesway satiate’s version utilized 100% cotton jersey fabric. This provided a lighter, more breathable outerwear. The jacket also has a slightly offset collar, much like a Shawl collar sweater. Another interesting good was the KNOLL IN (Short Sleeve) and KNOLL OUT (Long Sleeve) t-shirts. Again, this has a twist of uniqueness. In place of the usual graphics on a tee, Takahashi weaved into each a beautifully crocheted band, a detail that is hard to miss. The Spring/Summer 2008 collection from seesway satiate is currently available at its flagship store in Harajuku and at it online retail point.
