Sacai
Chitose Abe is the creative director of Sacai, a label she founded in 1999. The brand is known for its prodigious technical ability, splicing two items of clothing together to create a sum that is greater than its parts.
This season Abe was after a sense of harmony—there’s so little of it in the world at the moment. Illustrating on the idea of harmony, many of the outfits that looked like three separate items—a shirt, pants, and trench, say—were actually jumpsuits. Besides, all the scarf asymmetries and loose volumes conveyed another meaning: freedom.
