Discover the Mame Kurogouchi Fall/Winter 2023 “Bamboo Interactions” collection unveiled at Paris Fashion Week.
Designer Maiko Kurogouchi placed focus on the intricacies of the Japanese basket and the surrounding culture which became popular in Japan at the beginning of the 20th century. The result is a linear collection stripped of excess and filled with beautifully elevated looks full of quiet confidence. Natural earth tones take center stage with a focus on reversible silk-cashmere coats, boleros, and intricately cut-out knitwear that envelope.
In regards to accessories which add another layer of depth to the bamboo inspiration, Kurugouchi incorporated earrings and bangles made from bamboo and showcased a footwear collaboration with Hakimono Sekizuka.
