Jun Takahashi's Undercover collection

Jun Takahashi's Undercover Line for S/S 2010

Highlights from the 76th annual event include a preview of Jun Takahashi’s much buzzed about street wear collection, Undercover.

Jun Takahashi has already been declared as fashion’s next big thing. This year Takahashi’s is keeping the fashion to a minimum. Believe it or not inspired by German industrial designer Dieter Ram. He tells MenStyle about the encounter that two had while in Toyko:

“I’m a collector of his Braun products,” Takahashi said, “I met him at the end of last month when he was in Tokyo for his retrospective. He came to my studio and looked through my sketchbook and said he liked it. What I do is casual daily clothes, not too much fashion, but with hidden functionalism in an Undercover way. What we perceived from Rams is the simple but beautiful touch that exists after discarding unnecessity.”

Undercover will be made avaliable to consumers in September.
