Akira Minagawa behind the label presented his work for the first time in London last September. his pieces are all made of original fabrics, which is supported by a long-established tradition here and also contributes to reviving some textile industry in critical condition.

Akira Minagawa's label called mina perhonen
such as relations between Rei Kawakubo and Comme des Garcons
a bit involved.

each fabric has its own name.
this is "nap".

Thanks for clearing that up.
I was also wondering...


Is Minagawa's biography online? It's okay even if it's in Japanese

Ailanto
Josep Font
Miriam Ocariz
Lydia Delgado
Josep and Lydia have their public in spain so does Ailanto,but internationally I don't think they get too much attention
also Spastor for guys
I really like dries van notten and he's never a big thing and I also admire hhow paul smith prevail...paul smith must be like the mary quant for guys
PD.this is my first post so I'm just writing nonsense
