2013 Spring / Summer Trends ＜　Restart with the Heart　＞ We, as Japanese, are questioned as to how we should further maintain human strength towards the future, facing earth-shaking, unprecedented disaster, and disrupting the basis of our lives. What are we capable of, under such circumstances? To be deeply immersed in something, to laugh or love, touch and cherish the beauty we encounter. The earth is one. All we can do is wish for a better tomorrow than today, by respecting our one and only Earth wholeheartedly. Let us step forward by restarting our lives for a better future. Love comforts us, while beauty heals us, nature, as power itself, revitalises us, whereas fashion functions as an essential, mental tranquilizer. Let us recharge our batteries by encountering beautiful, marvellous and pleasant elements… for an ever-brighter future.
