Prepare to love these five new Japanese brands, each of which has created an exclusive capsule collection for MR PORTER.
In this short film, MR PORTER travels to Tokyo, Japan to meet the six designers behind its new Japanese capsules, produced in partnership with influential Japanese retailer Beams. As we visit the studios and workplaces of designers from ALOYE, Teatora, Marvy Jamoke, Kics Document, Orslow and SASQUATCHFABRIX, we ask each about their process and inspiration. Find out more about each brand below.
