iku Makawa, Nozomi Ishiguro, Color-iCollection
F Collection focuses on designer Nozomi Ishiguro's Haute Couture line for Fall/Winter 2011/2012. Lace, fur, and knit were on the agenda as well as loads of other lavish textures (feathered ball gown skirt anyone?) The collection was completely inspired by the words of the song As Tears Go By sung by Marianne Faithful and written by two members of The Rolling Stones. At first, the designer wanted a happier theme, but could not manage it after the events of the severe Japan earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011. F Models features Aiku Makawa as she gets photographed for the DUP Eyelashes company in Tokyo. She produced those fake eyelashes and finds them amazingly fun and girly. Finally, for F Fashion Event, Tokyo Fashion News highlights a charity event called Color-i Collection held at Dix Azabu. The place was filled with people, DJs were spinning their best hits, and collaboration collections from some of Japan's best designers were showcased on the runway.
