I don’t consider myself as an optimistic person. I always think of what I should do to make things. I think of what I should do now. I wish to continue to make research and develop the future technology and to make things with the team of young designers who are to create the future designs.
Those are the words Monsieur Issey Miyake uses to end our conversation, featured on the poster. When I interviewed him, and during the time I was working on this special Tokyo Fashion issue, Japan had not yet faced the tragedy of the tsunami is suffers now. Today it’s different. The worst has happened, and all of sudden everything resonates with a different tone. Sadness mixed with real concerns.
Monsieur Miyake is a wise man. For him, the future of making things mixes traditional crafts with new techniques, with the humble aim to regenerate the world. What is beautiful in this idea is that it applies not only to Fashion, but to many other fields of creation as well.
