MUNETAKA YOKOYAMA PRESENTS “JAPANESQUE FORMAL”,a subliminal presentation of formal wear created with the greatest reverence for ancient Japanese culture.
The yardage of choice is luxurious traditional kimono fabric created by Gensai Okubo, a leading kimono artist in Japan. Through the collaboration with Gensai Okubo, MUNETAKA YOKOYAMA is showcasing men's and women's tuxedos, kimono dresses, and kimono clothes using Nishijin brocade. The modern combination of tailored formal wear made from age-old kimono fabric is unique and shines a new light on Japan’s heritage industry, whilst celebrating the enduring beauty of Japan.
MUNETAKA YOKOYAMA is the second-generation designer of a sixty-year-old bespoke sewing factory specialising in high-end tailor-made suits.
