Chitose Abe set out to a variety collection for men and women
Sacai Spring/Summer 2019 Paris succeeded with a whimsical collection that was a color-packed mosaic...
There were piles of gravel and pileups of not-always-summery garments at Sacai’s spring show held in an orangerie at the Jardins du Luxembourg. The dust the models kicked up was echoed in the dry, talcum texture of the fabrics and shades ranging from greige to peony pink.
Show notes can often be confusing, yet Chitose Abe hit the nail on the head in calling her spring effort a “new hybrid form free from its original meaning.”
