Orimi Spring 2027: Expanding Beyond Black in Tokyo

Kenta Orimi, a self-taught designer and former Harajuku youth, presented his third runway show in Tokyo for Spring 2027, indicating a transformation in his brand's style. The collection showcased dandies dressed in white suits and bowler hats, paired with a live improvisational cello performance. The palette shifted to khaki, brown, and black, with a striking hot pink polo shirt as a highlight. Orimi emphasized the increased use of vibrant colors and new fabrics, such as wool and silk, featuring notable items like herringbone cargo pants. The casting was notably more diverse, moving beyond predominantly Asian male models. Collaborations included chunky footwear from Kids Love Ghaite and hats from CA4LA, with the event held at an undisclosed location, reflecting the brand's evolution.
