Mighty ancient wonders

Saturday, 18 February 2012


The previous Saint Martins student Kumiko Watari is one of our absolute favourite London stars and her adorable naive illustrations ever-present at Shop 172. Although the humorous twist seen in Migh-T can be recognized as a Japanese heritage it must be said that Watari’s artistic background and interest in traditional craft techniques contributes to the brands uniqueness and each new collection offers insight into a new world. It is therefore always a pleasure to receive her colourful and imaginative creations. This season we are happy as ever to see a particular sense of spring, full of pineapples, lips, birds and monsters. See Ancient Wonders at Shop 172.
