COVER STORY: Maiko Kurogouchi

Fourteen years since her debut. Mame Kurogouchi, led by Maiko Kurogouchi, creates a unique world by developing textiles through in-depth exploration of domestic production sites and techniques, simultaneously crafting intricate details, delicate expressions, and beautifully curved forms. With a contemporary freshness that also embodies traditional depth, the collection exudes elegance. These are truly garments that make you want to reach out and try them on. Each season, she establishes a theme, conducts extensive research, and translates it into clothing. The 2025 season's theme is "Katachi (Form)". While she values everyday scenes and personal sensations, how is her distinctive world constructed? We take a peek into her design perspective.
