pixelated fashion by kunihiko morinaga of anrealage
japanese designer kunihiko morinaga showcases an 8-bit interpretation of the range of women’s fashion, from dresses and professional suits to athletic styles and sweatshirts, in the pixel-patterned fall/winter 2011/2012 collection of his fashion company anrealage. the line debuted during japan fashion week.

primarily composed of colourful square blocks of diverse fabrics, the clothing can appear relatively conventional from a distance, but at closer range its unusual pattern is revealed. a line of shoes composed of similar materials, including pumps that feature a blocky, cubic heel, fills out the collection. during the fashion show, models also donned coloured translucent eyewear and accessories composed of individual squares and cubes, while a pianist echoed the theme with live music reminiscent of early video games.

Some of this is awesome, and better still it makes me jealous, which as a design student is a great motivator.
I especially admire the glasses – I don’t care that they’re unwearable – pointless exploration of creativity should be encouraged, if only to make utilitarian life more bearable.
The blue 40s dress with the black lace trim, the camouflage jacket, and the tartan jacket are inspired.
