“Picnic Wonderland Brings” Exhibition
Usagi NY
This event has ended.
On Thursday, July 14th, usagiと_newyork debuts Picnic Wonderland, an immersive fashion installation showcasing highlights from S/S16 collections of six clothing brands largely new to American market. The participating brands include Wanda Nylon, Yasutoshi Ezumi, salvy, CLEANA, AnnC, Efilevol, and Richfield. These brands are set apart by innovative yet timeless styles that resonate with usagiと_newyork’s commitment to integration of traditional and contemporary techniques and materials. All garments on display were manufactured with sustainable materials and resource-efficient practices in France and Japan, readily lending themselves to the earth-friendly ‘slow fashion’ ethos.
To kick off the installation, usagiと_newyork is throwing a launch party complete with open bar and temporary body art provided by Tattly. The event will include the unveiling of an indoors picnic lounge area created entirely with discarded, excess, and found materials by a set designer Yuko Nakao. DJ set by a fashion week afterparty favorite Keichiro Nakajima and a special solo performance by a Beyoncé collaborator Adison Evans will round off the evening.
