The highlights from Yuima Nakazato Couture Collection Fall/Winter 2024

"...It was another special occasion for #Legend_th to be invited by Yuima Nakazato, the renowned Japanese designer famous for his Haute Couture designs, to the exclusive Paris Couture Fashion Week 2024. What are the inspirations, the precious techniques he used, or the story behind this presentation. All answers can be found in this article..."

The first point of interest that can be noticed right away is none other than the venue itself. The Cité Dentelle Mode building in the city of Calais was transformed into the exhibition space for this show. Furthermore, with seat number AA25, which is considered a front-row spot, #Legend_th could clearly see the exquisite designs through the lens of Yuima Nakazato.

When it comes to design and details, the first outstanding aspect noticeable from the outset is the captivating atmosphere, that was interpreted through his costume designs creations for Mozart's opera "Idomeneo"

Ropes and shades of red were used as key elements of this collection, paired with shades of white and black that served as blank canvases waiting to be painted. In terms of design, it is noticeable that the deconstructed style of design, applied to basic silhouettes like dresses, coats, and blazers, is a crucial technique in conveying an avant-garde identity effectively. This elevated the collection's sophistication through styling, which not only involved makeup but also stage design techniques and storytelling through lighting within the space.

Overall, Yuima Nakazato's show this time was a portrayal of the 'fragility' of humanity. This narrative was conveyed through the deliberate imperfections in the meticulously crafted garments. Each detail was designed to communicate this message beautifully, akin to a masterful poem that served as the inspiration for this collection.

“All humans have red colour inside the body,” said Yuima Nakazato
