"和服是日本的**象征,在日本国内被视为民族文化的化身,在国际上被视为一种异国情调。 这种标志性服装通常被认为是传统的,不变的,永恒的,但是这本书与这个观念相反,它将和服呈现为**活力和时尚感的服装。和服的文化和做工意义被放在日本和西方的历史和现代背景下进行探索,自17世纪以来西方就一直感受到和服对服装风格的影响。
这本插图精美的书展示了来自V&A和世界各地的和服收藏的250多件和服和和服风格的服装,揭示了其对从大卫•鲍伊(David Bowie)到比约克(Bjoerk)的流行明星的影响,并研究了三宅一生(Issey Miyake),约翰•加利亚诺(John Galliano)和亚历山大•麦昆(Alexander McQueen)等时装设计师重新发挥其影响的方式。
The kimono is the ultimate symbol of Japan, revered within the country as the embodiment of national culture and regarded internationally as an exotic fascination. The iconic garment is often viewed as traditional, unchanging and timeless, but this book counters that conception, presenting the kimono as highly dynamic and fashionable dress. The cultural and sartorial significance of the kimono is explored in historical and contemporary contexts, both in Japan and the West, where its impact on clothing styles has been felt since the seventeenth century.
Beautifully illustrated, the book features over 250 kimono and kimono-inspired garments from the V&A and collections around the world, revealing its sartorial influence on pop stars from David Bowie to Bjoerk and examining the ways in which fashion designers such as Issey Miyake, John Galliano and Alexander McQueen have reworked its legacy.
