All black? To fashion week? How original. But honestly, black never fails to look good. It suits every mood, every show and every hour. You’ll never look too dressed up or down, and it’s easy to inject personality into your outfits. Fashion week attendees played around with various fabrics, textures, layers and cut outs, all of which said something different about themselves in the same colour.

Oversized fits aren’t anything new, but wide-legged trousers are everywhere. One silhouette, where the leg flares in a dramatic fashion from the knee down, are a dominant trend. It was styled in a variety of ways—balance yours with a more fitted top or pair with something equally wide—proving that this is a very versatile look.

Layering is another trend that the Japanese do oh-so-well, and we can’t help but admire this particular look. A loose-fitting jumpsuit in an accordion fabric with a T-shirt underneath and two scarves tied two ways—one around the waist like a skirt/apron/sarong and one folded and tied short around the neck—looks comfortable, elegant and totally customisable.

Cultural representation is making its way into wardrobes, and what better time to share one’s heritage than at Tokyo Fashion Week? Traditional Japanese clothing, accessories and fabrics were popular among guests, and we saw hints of kimono, yukata and geta incorporated into modern looks to create a fun fusion.

Japanese fashion has always loved the American cowboy look, and there are multiple vintage and secondhand shops in Tokyo totally dedicated to stocking Americana clothing and accessories. Different western details were seen, from the ubiquitous cowboy boots that made a massive comeback recently—I mean just look at these!—to subtle details like studded belt buckles.
