commuun - Kaito Hori & Iku Furudate

[runner]

Established in 2005 by Kaito Hori and Iku Furudate, Commuun has held
exhibitions during the Paris Women's Ready to Wear Fashion Week ever
since. From its debut, with the Spring Summer 2006 collection, Commuun
has constantly enjoyed a strong critical acclaim among some of the most
highly-regarded stores in the world, such as Maria Luisa in Paris, Dover
Street Market in London, 10 Corso Como and Isetan in Tokyo.

The core idea of all collections is drawn from the structural aspect of nature,
with its balance and tensions. Commuun’s work aims at reconstructing these
features through simple but strong shapes and fine detailing. This fundamental
approach is also reflected in the exclusive use of natural and organic fabrics for
the collection. Before each collection, a detailed research is undertaken in order
to determine the most adequate fabrics to work with. Once carefully chosen,
the materials are further refined through the use of the traditional French pattern
cutting technique to create clothes of long-lasting quality, balance and functionality.
Commuun's garments are best-known for their simple and well-tailored patterns
reinforced by futuristic details.

boring.

anything but boring...it's a label i've been tracking for a while & considering they're carried at Dover street, Shine, Adelaide & Loveless, it provides an indication of how stunning these lines are...

I love the contrast in the dresses, cottons, silks, satins, there's a perfect blend, an eloquent balance...
