Descriptions:

Jun Takahashi?€?s Undercover embodies the quintessence of Japanese cool, channeling raw-edged rebellion and dramatic high-concept elegance to produce an inimitable vision that fascinates in its dualities. Takahashi founded the label in 1990 as a student at Tokyo's Bunka Academy of Fashion, eschewing the conventional apprenticeship most young Japanese designers are expected to undertake. Such irreverence carried his early punk-inflected work, which quickly found support and mentorship from Comme des Gar??ons?€? Rei Kawakubo. Operating under the maxim ?€?We Make Noise Not Clothes,?€? Undercover uses an unexpected combination of materials, colors, and cuts to dissolve the binaries between high and low, avant-garde and utilitarian, and macabre and beautiful. With a diverse and alluring oeuvre, Undercover generates a coherently surrealist universe, one which Takahashi continues to expand upon one collection at a time.
