[1990-2000].60 original sketches (210 x 280 mm), in ink, felt pen, graphite or watercolor.
A collection of 60 fashion sketches and drawings for the latest collections, produced between 1990 and 2000.
The story of Kenzo Takada is that of the first Japanese designer to make his mark on the Paris fashion scene. Born in 1939 in Himeji, Japan, Kenzo developed an early interest in fashion. Opposing his parents' decision to pursue literary studies, he enrolled at Tokyo's Bunka Fashion College, where he was one of the first male students to be admitted to the fashion and textile department.

"Kack Kerouac creating a poem with Lew Welchand Albert Saijo, at Mc Darrah's New-York apartement, December 10, 1959".
Lew Welsh (David Wain's character in "Big Sur") and Albert Saijo published with Kerouac "Trip-trap", the book of haikus they wrote during the trip from San Francisco to New York, from September to December 1959. The final corrections were made on the spot, and this photograph captures the atmosphere: cigarettes, alcohol, a slightly puffy, tired face.
Fred Mc Darrah recounts, the photographer, tells : "We went to the same bars, we went to the same places, and there were poetry readings everywhere. The main meeting place was the Living Theatre, which put on dance shows and plays. All this took place in New York,… Read More
