New Fashionable & Game Changing Happi Coat “HAPPYCOAT” to be Sold at Isetan Shinjuku

29.March.2018 | FASHION

Costume designer Junko Koshino and design order happi coat brand Happi.Tokyo have developed a new style of Japanese happi coat which, when worn, expresses Japan and hospitality. The coats are available at Isetan Shinjuku, the Isetan online sotre, and Online Happi.Tokyo.

 

 

Happi coats are generally worn during festivals and events in Japan. But because of the recent boom in traditional Japan and the increase in foreign visitors to the country, they are being worn in many more instances such as for sales promotion and as uniforms. In response, Junko Koshino, who has developed international cultural exchange in the world through fashion, and Happi.Tokyo, who promote happi coats in a multitude of ways, have used their knowledge to co-develop the new HAPPYCOAT.

 

 

The HAPPYCOAT can be easily put on and possesses functionality – it can be worn for businesses promotion, as a uniform, at events, in support of something, and so on. It can also be used as a fashion item in the yukata scene or on the street.

 

 

The design of the HAPPYCOAT uses Japanese motifs together with unconventional colour combinations and patterns to create a coat that is a happi – but also isn’t. It also makes full use of the sleeves of a happi which create a genderless and sizeless design. To those overseas, it can enjoyed as traditional Japanese fashion.

 

The sewing and printing was crafted by experts in their fields who have years of experience with the special characteristics of materials. You can feel the refinement and consideration put into this happi.

 

Why not try a new style of Japanese with the HAPPYCOAT?

  • Tennis Star Naomi Osaka Releases Upcycled Denim Collection with Levi’s®

    26.August.2021 | FASHION

    Naomi Osaka is one of the fiercest young athletes in sports today. Now a four-time Grand Slam singles champion, she’s caught the attention of aspiring athletes all over the world with her authenticity and skill. Now, she’s teaming up with Levi's® to release a new collection, available at select stores in Japan beginning August 24. The pieces will also be sold at the official online store.   

    Crystal Fringe Short : ¥33,000 (Tax Included)

    Lace-Up Short : ¥19,800 (Tax Included)

    Trucker Jacket Bustier: ¥24,200 (Tax Included)

    Denim Kimono : ¥40,500 (Tax Included)

       The collection utilizes vintage or upcycled denim to capture Osaka’s preferred silhouette, with each piece utilizing her unique designs based in femininity and sportiness.    The Denim Kimono is a respectful homage to traditional Japanese culture. “I loved wearing kimono as a child,” Osaka commented. “I thought if I included one made of denim in the collection, it would be super unexpected and surprising.”    This collection also includes two denim shorts: the Lace-Up Short is sportier, and is a clever reimagining of the classic Levi’s® denim shorts. They feature cutouts above the knees, a feminine lace-up back, and were made from upcycled men’s Levi’s® jeans. For those wanting something more girly, the Crystal Fringe Short features a collection of shimmering fringe gracefully dropping down the sides of the cut-off pants.    Rounding out the collection is the Trucker Jacket Bustier, a denim bustier with a lace-up back. This is a remake of the Levi's® trucker jacket, cut in the traditional corset style with classic lines, flap pockets, and recognizable buttons. “When I was sketching, the idea of the bustier came to me and I absolutely loved it. Now that it’s been made and is actually real, it’s so much cuter than I imagined. I love it even more!” Osaka commented.    This blend of sporty and feminine makes the collection a perfect shoutout to Naomi Osaka’s rich heritage. Most importantly, the collection is made from vintage and upcycled denim, breathing new life into already existing Levi's® items and reducing impact on the environment. “Sustainability initiatives are important to me. What I love most about the collection is how responsibly the pieces were made,” the tennis star said.    Which of these four pieces would you like to rock this summer?
