DESIGNER: Ryujiro Tamaki
Born in 1976.

2001 Began working as a designer for domestic men’s wear brand after working as a buyer for a NY brand.
2005-2006 Launched own product PUBLIC IMAGE in the Autumn/Winter season.
2007-2008 Debuted at the
Autumn/Winter Tokyo Collection.

Tamaki began creating by echoing the refined world of contemporary art and music in his work. He regards clothing as a kind of art form, and that the wearer of the clothing is not a‘unit,’ but an existence within a large painting that sometimes includes the background of that wearer.

Concept of the brand
When he finds himself captured in various environments and situations as some kind of painting, the existence of his clothing within that background becomes the theme of the fashion. This is how Tamaki freely expresses everything that he has absorbed up till now, such as cultures and miscellaneous matters in the modern world.

DESIGNER: 玉木 竜二郎
1976年生まれ。

コンテンポラリーアート・現代音楽といった洗練された世界に共鳴し、創作活動を開始。玉木は、服をアートフォームの一種と考え、服を着る者自身の「個」のものとしてではなく、その時々の背景も含めた大きな画の中に存在するものとして捉えている。

ブランドコンセプト
様々な環境やシュチュエーションの中にいる自身を一種の画像として捉えた時、背景の中にそのままにそのまま存在する服をテーマに、彼がこれまでに吸収してきたカルチャーや、現代の中で感じる事を自由に表現する。
