OCTOBER 2011 www.tokyoweekender.com EDITOR’S NOTE TRICK OR treat? e all love Halloween: Trick or treating, costume parties and a whole weekend of serious fun! For last minute costume ideas DIY enthusiasts need look no further than everyone’s favorite cathedral of Wconsumerism: Don Quijote. The store stocks a good selection of masks and face paints (www.donki.com), as does Tokyu Hands (www.tokyu-hands.co.jp). Or, if you feel like splashing out, Loft department store have a slightly more up-market selection (www.loft.co.jp). Now you have your costume sorted, you can hit the town! Which brings us nicely to the annual Yamanote line “Halloween party”. When I first heard of this a few years ago; it sounded like one of those kerr-azy things Japanese teenagers might do, something the foreign media would happily lap up as another example of “wacky Japan”. The sad truth is, a gang of ghoulish gaijin with too much time on their hands decided to invade the central car of one of the worlds busiest commuter trains; drink excessively, play loud music, harass passengers and even urinate on the train (seriously?!) which somehow, thanks to the internet, warped into an annual “tradition”. Last year, commuters at Shinjuku (Tokyo’s busiest station) were treated to a special appearance by Japanese far- right protestors, who staged a noisy demonstration surrounded by hundreds of uniformed Police. At times it was hard to tell who was in costume and who wasn’t—which may be funny if it wasn’t so scary! Unlike most Western cultural traditions that have been taken up by Japan with great abandon, Halloween remains a somewhat of a mystery to many Japanese people. Tokyo Disney Land may run a three month Halloween Life is Better extravaganza and department stores may cash in on candy sales but most Japanese people still don’t get it. So naturally they look to English speaking expats to explain. And what are when Shared we to tell our Japanese friends when they inquire about the ancient traditions of All Hallows’ Eve? - “Oh, we wear stupid masks, get drunk, fight and piss on trains—it’s wonderful!” If you really want to enjoy the seedy side of Halloween, skip the Staying in a hotel is spending a precious JR lines altogether and take the subway to Roppongi, (trust us amount of your time.Sheraton Hiroshima there is always plenty going on, you’ll love it!)

INTRODUCTION 3 In 2015, Lidewij Edelkoort published her manifesto «Anti_Fashion», which shows the end of a system. «I love fashion. I never said it was the end of fashion. I said it was the end of a fashion system as we know it today. It is not the fault of fashion, it is the fault of the system», Lidewij Edelkoort. Since the publication, the manifesto has become a reference not only in the world of fashion but also in different sectors such as design or gastronomy and is becoming a real way of thinking and innovating. The first Anti-Fashion Edition with Lidewij Edelkoort took place in Marseille in June 2016. The next edition will take place from June 2nd to 4th 2017 in Marseille and will be led by Sophie Fontanel. Some twenty speakers, gathered around Lidewij Edelkoort, will question the current system - a lifeless fashion system, mirror of a disordered economy and a fragile society - to write together the scenario of renewal to quote Lidewij Edelkoort. PR ANTI_FASHION 2017 P. THOUGHTS 4 Societal Trends are evolving. Humans are totally part of those upheavals: the way we live, we consume, we act in regards with others are testifying these changes and are considerably impacting on Fashion industry which is experiencing a real revolution.

  • A Matter of Scale and Pace
    CRAFT A MATTER OF SCALE AND PACE By Lidewij Edelkoort "Crafts: A matter of scale and pace" is an analysis of the future of hand-made design and sustainability, first published in the Prince Claus Fund Journal, "The Future is Handmade", The Hague (2003). Lidewij Edelkoort is one of the founding members of Heartwear, a non-for-profit organisation based in Paris and working principally in Benin, Morocco and India. She helped start a Humanitarianism Design masters programme while directing the Design Academy Eindhoven and has received a Lifetime Achievement award from Aid to Artisans 1 www.trendtablet.com Some years ago while strolling through the Luxembourg Gardens in Paris in April, I discovered a unique nest in a tree, crafted by an avant-garde bird; its outer layers were made from twigs, while the inner side was woven from plastic McDonald’s coffee sticks… a perfect blend of the old and the new, the organic and the technical, the natural and the man-made, bridging the past with the future! This metaphor has inspired me ever since and has taught me to understand the future of arts and crafts, its possibilities and its requirements. Ethnologic museums such as the striking National Ethnological Museum in Osaka or the endearing Indonesian National Museum in Jakarta, show us in often touching ways how mankind has crafted its way from prehistoric to post-modern times, creating culture and forging tradition; how in each instance and on every island, the local population has realised hunting weapons and fishing tools, cooking vessels and utensils, patterned bark and dyed textiles, braided baskets and woven carpets for humble but perfectly- designed abodes in local matter and ingenious indigenous techniques.

  • Fetishism in Fashion: by Lidewij Edelkoort Free
    FREE FETISHISM IN FASHION: BY LIDEWIJ EDELKOORT PDF Lidewij Edelkoort,Philip Fimmano | 208 pages | 17 Sep 2013 | Frame Publishers BV | 9789491727139 | English | Amsterdam, Netherlands Fetishism in Fashion - Consortium Book Sales & Distribution Internationally renowned trend forecaster Lidewij Edelkoort delves into the fetishistic world of contemporary fashion to reveal a daring and instinctive future for style and culture. As Edelkoort explains, the book explores various themes, Fetishism in Fashion: By Lidewij Edelkoort "our fundamental need to cover ourselves to the eccentric extremes to which our desires can take us on the quest for beauty. Fetishism in Fashion investigates topics including the evolution of taste from birth to adulthood, the elevation of shoes through ever-higher heels, the psychology of branding, the effects of infantilism, the power of the color black, the fetishizing of objects, and the interaction of architecture, fashion, and the body. The avant garde art performances of Leigh Bowery are highlighted in honor of his continually growing influence on contemporary culture. Talent will be sourced from around the globe, focusing on innovative and original content that illustrates a dramatic shift in aesthetics. Bolder, crazier, and more outlandish styles are on the fashion horizon, making this book a key reference in a new era of experimentation and intense creativity. With visually rich photography and essays by established authors discussing art, clothing, design, textiles, food, and beauty, this in-depth publication will unveil the intimate ties that bind us. Edelkoort started her career as a fashion coordinator at department store De Bijenkorf. In she relocated to France where she set up as an independent trend consultant.
