The beauty and genius of Sacai is how contrasting luxurious raw textiles and tactile textures are beautifully crafted together to create one stunning, intelligent, yet very wearable look. Established by Japanese designer Chitose Abe in 1999 after eight years of working on the Junya Watanabe collection under Comme des Garçons, the Sacai womenswear line quietly garnered an underground cult following for its uniquely feminine, refined styling and exquisite balance of light and delicate fabrics. Extraordinary knitwear and super-fine woven pieces became Abe’s strength; but more recently, she has exhibited her mastery of artisanal tops, jackets and dresses. She launched the Sacai men’s collection in 2009, further exploring her design philosophy of creating a distinct elegance by transforming basic and classic items. Timeless, innovative and experimental, Sacai crafts incredible fashion with philosophical edge and sartorial soul.
