Children of the Discordance presented a second release of its Autumn/Winter ’21 collection at Rakuten Fashion Week Tokyo teaming up with Face A/J.
Children of the discordance starts in 2011 as a collective of three friends who, between hiphop and hard-core music, create a customised shirt, making the one and only piece never seen before and produce original patches and screen prints for original t-shirts.
“Since last July we started showing in Milan, but these season I felt it was right to present both in Milan and Tokyo, as a way to connect more closely with Japanese audience and with our Tokyo community in this time of closure. It was also, I guess, a way to celebrate the return of the autumn/winter edition of Rakuten fashion week, which was cancelled one year ago due to the pandemic” said Hideaki Shikama, Children of the discordance’s creative director. The event took the format of a physical runway at Tokyo National Museum Hyokeikan in Ueno, Tokyo.
As a further trait d’union with Milan release, Japanese artist Hideyoshi, main performer in Children of the discordance AW21 fashion film “Dawn” released in January on the occasion of Milan fashion week, appeared in the show to close the line up in turquoise dyed hair as a tribute to the collection tittle dawn and to the Tokyo release seasonal colour shade.
The runway show saw re-edited Children of the Discordance AW21 looks and new inedited styles releases.
