| book description |

The story of Japanese fashion is both brief and extraordinary and has challenged Western notions of fashion and aesthetics. The Cutting Edge examines this story and looks at the work of 19 designers. It includes pioneers Hanae Mori, Kenzo Takada and the 'big 3'- Rei Kawakubo (Comme des Garcons), Issey Miyake and Yohji Yamamoto; and the exciting work of a new generation of designers led by Junya Watanabe and Jun Takahashi and others little known outside Japanese fashion and art circles.
