Emerging brand LAMARCK calls this collection “Catagenesis”, or regressive evolution, like an adult getting their child on. Is it a call to arms against “only the strongest survive”? A plea to get simple? …Nevermind the complicated questions and feast your eyes upon the accessories, which are nothing if not super-evolutionized.
最初は大人っぽくクールだけどだんだん子供っぽい要素が増えてキュートになって行く構成は今回のテーマ “退行的進化”のあらわれかな? 何と言っても目を引くのは、革新的な素材で装飾されたスパイキーなバッグ。マイコタケダが手がけたそのバッグはモデルの動きに合わせて揺れるグラデーションのフィルムがコレクション全体にほどよい刺激を加えていた。イソギンチャクみたいなきれいな色!

The decidedly mature taste of Lamarck’s designs are offset by short hemlines and girly details like floufy skirts. At once appearing conservative, it’s turned on it’s head with messy corn-row hair (by Kunio Kohzaki who loves a good messy head) and accented by spiky vinyl box clutches borrowed from Maiko Takeda. Unsure of whther they will be produced at the time of the presentation, they were certainly the buzz of the show. If there were any doubts as to who the customer for Lamarck is…. girl or woman? One of it’s largest stockists is Sister in Shibuya, which is famous for churning out an edgy street-style chick or two.
LAMARCKのムードは”CATAGENESIS(退行的進化)”。複雑なテーマから連想されるように、スマートで大人っぽい印象のものとミニワンピースや布分量が多く歩くとゆれるスカートなどすこし少女らしい印象のフレッシュなアイテムが混在。このブランドの作品を多く取り扱ってるのは渋谷のSister なので、かっこよくてエッジのきいたガール達が多く着てると思う。
