tokyo: motonari ono.

Second designer from Tokyo Fashion Week and here are my favourites from Motonari Ono's 2013 set. Especially that saucy red lace number that I need for my already burgeoning lace laden closet. Aside from all the adorable lady like pieces and Peter Pan collars he sent down, Motonari did something unconventional. His models came down the runway carrying bust figures, which were dressed in his designs. They then proceeded to hang the mannequins on a display for the audience to have a beautiful and impactful overall image. Talk about making those models work it.

Photos from Tokyo Fashion Week are being posted on Style for the first time (yay!), which gives us a chance to see what my kooky fellow Asians are up to. Looks above are those that literally stood out to me in Alice Auaa's spring 2013 collection. As one can obviously see, Yasutaka Funakoshi (designer of Alice Auaa), is heavily influenced by Alice in Wonderland and aims to take a creepy, convoluted twist on her world. See shredded cage skirt & wearable desk above. Hey someone's gotta dress those Japanese Gothic Lolita's of the world that I so desperately wish I could be a part of.
