Tokyo Fashion Express - 2011/12/19

Dec. 19, Mon. 23:30 - 0:00 (UTC) etc.

NIPPON STYLE:
Using old technology for excellent new shoes
- Setsuko Kamakura, Chief Manager, Planning Department, Spingle

Japanese high technology is underpinning various new designs around the globe and fashion designers both at home and abroad are entrusting Japanese factories and studios to produce collection items. It is not uncommon for foreign designers to catch onto the quality even before we do in Japan. At the latest Milan Collection, popular designer Neil Barrett's sneakers attracted much attention for their curled up soles. The experienced craftsmen of Spingle Company, the shoemaker established by a Hiroshima-based rubber company, handle every step of the production process. The curl is achieved by baking the sole in a large old kiln - a time-consuming, traditional rubber processing technique now rarely used in the United States, where it was created, but here applied to shoemaking by the company's Chief Manager, Planning Department, Setsuko Kamakura just as the rubber company itself was on the verge of folding. We discover the innovation of this local manufacturer that astonished the world.

Tokyo BUZZ:
Dandy Girls go for "Ojisama" fashion

The latest women's style in Tokyo is the Oji-girl - a girl who dresses like a dapper dandy. It is all a combination of young feminine mode and tasteful traditional fashion. They may use wide leg trousers, for example, a tailored jacket, waistcoat or bolo tie, the very symbol of cool middle-aged guys in Japan. A style that once seemed clumsy is now hip. We take a look at the world of Oji-girls.
