Mukcyen's Low Energy: Tokyo Spring 2027 Collection Responds to Digital Noise
During Tokyo Spring 2027, Yuka Kimura unveiled her sixth collection for Mukcyen, named 'Low Energy,' which draws inspiration from Michelangelo Antonioni's 1964 film 'Red Desert.' At just 28, Kimura focused on the mental strain caused by industrialization and the overload of modern technology. The collection showcased tailored jackets with hoods and draped tops, enabling wearers to find refuge. It featured tight, sheer 'second-skin' garments, asymmetric corsets, skirts with messy lace edges, sheer black dresses, newspaper-print scarves, and T-shirts with distinctive neckbands. Paired with heeled mules, the collection aimed to empower individuals, making them feel attractive and confident in their everyday lives. Kimura remarked, 'I want the wearer to change a little through the clothes.'
