Rakuten Fashion Week in Tokyo recently concluded with an eclectic mix of ready-to-wear and conceptual designs from dozens of brands. Yoshio Kubo’s Spring-Summer 2023 collection offered sheer, gender-fluid looks, while designers at UCF playfully experimented with form and materials, using balls to fill the bubbly silhouettes of its monochrome collection on a catwalk resembling a running track. Anrealage’s retrospective runway featured some of its most provocative attempts to merge tech and fashion to date, while ablankpage. turned to unusual inspirations, like electric cables, to inform some of its bolder ensembles. #tokyofashionweek #rakutenfwt #japanesefashion
