Reo Ma FW15 | BA degree final collection . ( upadte 28/4 )

[gawkrodger]

All looking pretty impressive, especially for an undergrad collection. Will be interested to see price points if any of it is going to be commercially released. Definitely a few items I would be tempted by

I honestly think you will quickly rise into one of my top 5 favourite designers. I am blown away by your collection.

Wishing you all the best of luck with your work, and am looking forward very much to see your development, Reo Ma!

THANKS A LOT . price will be similar to lumen et umbra , still working on the costing , as the tape are too expensive (100+ gbp each garment ) , im trying to find the best way to do it

Actually, I really like your garments! They appear to be both timeless and must have in any wardrobe.

The silhouettes are unisex and straight. The fitting seems skinny but with confort and I'm literaly dying for the contrast on the stitching part. Small details tell the story too.

If you can move your pricing list at the same level as Lumen et Umbra, it might be fine but then it also depends your fabrics and treatmens.

Anyway, at your level, it seems you already have the structure to start something strong. I wish you good luck and I'm looking forward to learn more about you.

i will go to italy for fabric for the retail version , and also keep using the japanese hand made fabric , i will try to get guidi leather for the leather items .

heres some photos during filming for my fashion film , it actually looks better on model (im too small for my garments)












stay tuned

[IALAB]

Damn.

Some of the dopest shit I've ever seen on SZ.

Bravo.

[Dreavan]

Yes of course, Italy might provide you a wide range of fabrics but japanese materials remain among the bests and are a good argument for your price positioning too.

By the way, Guidi leather is in my opinion a very good selection of skins for longterm garments. Do you also plan to expand your collection onto accessories and shoes? That would be great in the future to be able to offer a total look.

Well, it looks good on the model because he is a model lol but I prefer to have a look on "real" people so I can have an idea on how to play with the volume, length and layering solutions.

Even if it starts to be very difficult to compete in that niche market, there is always a place for good brands with a nice concept, good craftmanship, nice selection of fabrics and new technics and/or treatments.

[ATIP]

Reo, may I ask which store is going to carry your AW14 collection?

[gawkrodger]

judging from Instagram, a certain store in the middle of England is interested

Rehearsal for the show

[Icarium]

Wow.... great looking show. Completely in love with the greyish look!

Curious if you supplied the footwear for all the models? Because that is a pretty amazing lineup as well ;p

[Resonkuken]

everything looks so good, man! I share the sentiment about the all grey look, it`s amazing.

[nvsnli]

Not a fan of the contrast stitching but different strokes for different folks.
I hope everything goes smoothly for you.

If you make killer but simple shorts those i might buy!
