Reviews
"No designer wants to be compared to another, but when such a comparison becomes the highest form of praise, it may be warranted. And so, if there is an heir apparent to the mind-bending, cerebral work of Hussein Chalayan, that designer is Kunihiko Morinaga of the Japanese brand Anrealage. In one of the texts that accompanies the first English language monograph on the brand, published by Rizzoli, the critic Yuko Hasegawa acknowledges as much (though dutifully pointing out that Morinaga occupies a different space in the rather thin pantheon of conceptual fashion)." -STYLEZEITGEIST MAGAZINE
"We're looking at another amazing drop from Rizzoli - this time, highlighting Kunihiko Morinaga and their Tokyo-based brand ANREALAGE. Starting in 2003, they've always been ahead of the game. Whether it's reactive, color changing materials, extreme silhouettes or deconstructed elements, you're always in for a treat." -NICKSAYSGO.COM
In this book, you will visit light, shape, color, and perspective, to name a few. Describing the pages of this book is almost impossible. You have to see them and study them. I am amazed at the many textures used here and the imagination that went into each piece of art, apparel, and costumes. . . There is life in action on each page, created with personality and extreme thought. Fabric, buttons, beads, metal, and form are in each creation, and I can honestly say there is something for everyone." -SPLENDID SASS
