Antwerp Royal Academy of Fine Arts: Final Year Collections - Koji Arai
Koji Arai’s highly conceptual final year collection, “Last Supperâ€, highlights the intellectual possibilities of transitioning from a background in architecture to garment construction. Perhaps the most well-known example of this type is Miuccia Prada. A lesser-known but equally engaging example is Vincenzo de Cotiis, designer and founder of the “powerfully disciplined†label, Haute. The transition from architecture to fashion unifies these artistic disciplines, resulting in collections that provoke much thought.
