  • Japonism in Fashion in London, 1971-72: 1 Designer, 3 Photographers, 3 Magazines
    Japonism in fashion in London, 1971-72: 1 Designer, 3 Photographers, 3 Magazines Helene Thian, J.D., M.A. Fashion Historian Magazine representations of Kansai Yamamoto designs and the designer-as-archetype captured by three photographers, Japanese and European, in the London marketplace around the time frame of his fashion show in May, 1971 on the King’s Road (Kansai in Tokyo and London, Excerpts 1 and 2, 1971) comprise a narrative on the presentation of Japanese ethnicity and modern day spectacle creative of a symbolic relationship between Japan and the British ‘mediated by images’ (Debord, 1994:4). The four magazine spreads from 1971 and 1972 portray a sense of spectacle (Debord, 1994) rooted in a definitive Japonism overlaid with a patina of Eastern exoticism for the benefit of a public eager to consume ‘fantasy images of magazine photo shoots.’ (Barley, 1999:97 in Evans, 2008) The style of presentation of this Japan-inspired dress in British magazines, including both imagery and text, raises issues such as the impact in the Western marketplace of ‘ethnic’ dress, or the traditional clothing of native peoples considered part of the cultural patrimony as discussed by Baizerman, Eicher and Cerny (2008: 126-29), which is a hallmark of late 20th century fashion in the Western world (Crane, 2000); the phenomena of ‘the Other’ (Hall, 1997); and Orientalist constructions of non-Western cultural identity (Said, 1978). The essential meaning of ‘Japaneseness’ (Iwabuchi, 1994) in dress in a modern context is captured in photographic imagery by both Japanese and non-Japanese photographers, namely, Clive Arrowsmith, Hideki Fujii, and Harry Peccinotti.

    CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO MARK FARRELL, MAYOR OFFICE OF SMALL BUSINESS REGINA DICK-ENDRIZZI, DIRECTOR Legacy Business Registry Staff Report HEARING DATE MARCH 26, 2018 KABUKI SPRINGS & SPA Application No.: LBR-2017-18-032 Business Name: Kabuki Springs & Spa Business Address: 1750 Geary Blvd. District: District 5 Applicant: Kathy Nelsen, Spa Director Nomination Date: January 25, 2018 Nominated By: Supervisor London Breed Staff Contact: Richard Kurylo [email protected] BUSINESS DESCRIPTION Kabuki Springs & Spa is the largest urban Japanese bathhouse and spa in the United States. It is known for its communal bathing facility, massage, skincare, and a variety of therapeutic Pan Asian body treatments. In 1968, Kabuki Hot Springs was developed by the Japanese corporation National Braemar, doing business as Dream Entertainment, as an essential part of the redevelopment of the Japan Cultural and Trade Center. The “Kabuki building” was a separate development from the Japan Center malls which were built by the Kintetsu Corporation. The Kabuki building featured a dinner theatre, sushi bar and bath house. Kabuki Hot Springs was seen as a new and uncommon business, and it became popular with young Americans looking for a unique experience. Originally, the traditional bath house offered Shiatsu massage and the sento (communal bathhouse) experience adjacent to the dinner theatre and small sushi restaurant. There was also a Shiatsu School, known as the Amma Institute, on the upper level. In 1976, AMC Theatre Corporation purchased the entire building and remodeled it, creating an 8-screen movie theatre and leaving the bathhouse intact. In 1998, Chip Conley, founder of Joie de Vivre Hospitality, leased the spa.

  • Japanese Costume
    JAPANESE COSTUME BY HELEN C. GUNSAULUS Assistant Curator of Japanese Ethnology FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CHICAGO 1923 Field Museum of Natural History DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY Chicago, 1923 Leaflet Number 12 Japanese Costume Though European influence is strongly marked in many of the costumes seen today in the larger sea- coast cities of Japan, there is fortunately little change to be noted in the dress of the people of the interior, even the old court costumes are worn at a few formal functions and ceremonies in the palace. From the careful scrutinizing of certain prints, particularly those known as surimono, a good idea may be gained of the appearance of all classes of people prior to the in- troduction of foreign civilization. A special selection of these prints (Series II), chosen with this idea in mind, may be viewed each year in Field Museum in Gunsaulus Hall (Room 30, Second Floor) from April 1st to July 1st at which time it is succeeded by another selection. Since surimono were cards of greeting exchanged by the more highly educated classes of Japan, many times the figures portrayed are those known through the history and literature of the country, and as such they show forth the costumes worn by historical char- acters whose lives date back several centuries. Scenes from daily life during the years between 1760 and 1860, that period just preceding the opening up of the coun- try when surimono had their vogue, also decorate these cards and thus depict the garments worn by the great middle class and the military ( samurai ) class, the ma- jority of whose descendents still cling to the national costume.
