Chie

Hi! As I mentioned on Friday, I had a chance to attend Shida Tatsuya show at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in Tokyo on behalf of a Canadian fashion blogger, Marcia. I wrote a detailed review on the show at her blog, so check it out here!  It was my first time seeing a run way show, and it was really exciting! I’ve only seen run way shows on TV, on Project Runway, so you can guess how excited I was to see it for real. It was a relatively small show. I didn’t see anyone famous or maybe I just didn’t notice any, except for Susie from Style Bubble and Misha from Tokyo Fashion Diaries.

My favorite looks were the first few pieces from the show. There was a parka made in white sheer fabric, layered over hot pink tube top or black and white stripes tube top. I thought they were really cute and wearable. My other favorite was a trench jackets, shown in the pictures below.

But then there were some pieces that made me wonder, “What were you thinking Mr. Shida?!” Such as this:

Is that a rug? I’m sorry but this is a pure ugliness…I would not wear it. It is just not flattering unless you are a floor.

Or this one. It is like pattern explosion. And the shape of the clothes…

What do you think? Do I not have the artistic sense to understand high-fashion?

Overall, I had a great time, and I am so inspired. Someday I hope to be able to show my clothes on a runway!
