Admittedly, I've not given Japan Fashion Week the attention I've only v. recently discovered it deserves. A duo of menswear designers proved particularly eye-catching and convinced me that I won't be letting this event slip under the radar any season soon.
Firstly, the luxe of two-tone blazers juxtaposed with the casual ease of graphic-patterned trousers or combined with plenty more edgy, tailored-wear - all courtesy of Heath by St. Martins' grad Gentaro Noda. I'm yearning to wear the two-tone grey/black-lapels blazer with the two-tone trousers for two, captivating dimensions of colour.
Then @Izreel's (this label by Kanagawa native Kazuhiro Takakura) urban affairs infused with scholar-chic. Am enamoured of that grey knit and there are no words for this zig-zag cut with asymmetric panels apart from: thumbs up for yet more two-tone. Perhaps the styling was a little weak but the blazer (plus the addition of the perfectly placed skinny bowtie) itself more than redeems the look.

That Heath stuff is nice.I wish I was fortunate to just go to New York on a whim,Opening Ceremony have a floor packed full of japanese designers.Lad Musician + John Lawrence Sullivan being of particular interest(hopefully they upload on the webstore in time for sales)
I'm reserving a great deal of anticipation for the images to the Song Zio collection which I still haven't seen but Heath was pretty impressive. Practical, smart, and full of lovely details.
