Wasn’t it just the other day I was crying Pocari Sweat tears over the fact that “buzz” at the Tokyo shows is always at levels of impotency? Well! Here’s something to talk about for awhile. At least until next season.

So young up-and-coming and highly promising designer Christian Dada had his 2014 SS collection as part of the Tokyo Fashion Week schedule today. Before I get to the clothes, I will show all the fun photos of KISS surprising everyone on the runway (oh, you actually care more about the clothes than KISS? Well then, skip on to the bottom, friend)…

The rumor mill started churning last week when people started talking about something amazing that Dada was planning. I heard it at the TouchMe afterparty, and it was printed all over the show notes.  There were tons of huge media crews and newspaper writers at the show which is unusual for a Tokyo fashion show.

Misha, the special guest is KISS”, said Commons & Sense editor Go Akimoto, who reveled in knowing the secret.

And sure enough, after the clothing had made it’s turn on the runway, the lights dropped then turned up bright with all four KISS members stomping down the runway. Yes, it’s so random!
What? Where? When? Why? How?
…amirite?

Apparently, this marks the 7th year since the band was last in Japan, and since there were doing their concert right during fashion week, they personally expressed interest in working with a Japanese brand during their visit. The Tokyo Fashion Week committee recommended Dada to them as his aesthetic is rock and dark, and that’s howthis marriage came to pass.

Dada designed the gold “biker gang” coat as part of their costumes and it was the first time EVER that the band has worn something from a brand other than their costumes. Before, Dada’s name became known when he created several outfits for Lady Gaga to wear on the red carpet as well as for her Born This Way tour. What a lucky boy, this one is!

So as for his 2014 collection, it was based on japanese biker gangs, known as “bosozoku” and it was biker jackets and gang sweatpants marked with big gold “phoenix” embroidery. The details need to be seen up close to be appreciated, but it was cheap viagra in uk far more minimalistic than chatty.

Far from the “loud” image of KISS, but I`m sure Dada wasn’t going to turn down this opportunity for the world.
