The Harajuku store, which offers not only original items but also a unique selection based on the keyword "French" that differs from stores nationwide, is the starting point for this new incarnation.ABAHOUSE. Following the Harajuku store's 2nd anniversary T-shirt introduced in the last issue, they have now dropped this item.
. The "Art T" series focuses on world-renowned painters. Now that the power of graphics and art is growing in the fashion industry, this is a graceful series with large prints of representative works and names.
The first is the Dutch painter, Johannes Vermeer . The first one is a print of "Girl with a Pearl Earring," a masterpiece that everyone knows. A masterpiece that will never disappear has power, and the same is true when it is incorporated into a fashion item. The outstanding impact is eye-catching.
. The T-shirt with the word "Meer" on it looks a little fresh. The text is said to be a tribute to Vermeer's own handwriting. It seems to match with a mode and simple outfit.
The lineup also includes T-shirts with the names of Vermeer's works enumerated on the back print.
Next is a series focusing on the Austrian master Gustav Klimt, whose "Klimt: Vienna and Japan 1900" is currently being held at the "Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum. Incidentally, this year marks the 150th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Austria and Japan, and we may see an increase in fashion items related to the anniversary year in the future.
