Backstage, front row, and at the after-party for ORIMI S/S ’26.
Our friend’s Japan Fashion Week debut was the perfect provocation to re-engage.
Designer Kenta helms not only ORIMI but also the select store ELEPHANT, cultivating a devoted cohort of style-forward young men — a barometer of Tokyo “street” style in its most grounded sense.
A reminder of what I love in fashion: where decisive aesthetics meet genuine community.
Thanks to Yu-chan for joining me in the after-party effort — it was a struggle in the 150-BPM smoky darkness of the basement-level three club, but fun was had.
