Takeshi Mori’s Objetstandard looked sleek and polished in a striking catwalk show in Harajuku today.
A moody collection inspired by jazz and masculine lines meant plenty of tailored grey suits, fine hoods and light trenchcoats.
Sub-Gothic tones, black and white stripes, checks and butch brown leather jackets and coats gave a serious element to the show.
Mori gave an adept collection and defined a couture approach to Autumn/Winter 2006-7.
