The Design Museum is hosting NIGO: From Japan With Love, the first ever museum retrospective and exhibition outside of Japan that showcases the career and life of the Japanese creative director, NIGO. One of the first creatives to bridge the gap between streetwear and luxury fashion, NIGO (who founded A Bathing Ape and is artistic director of Kenzo) has defined trends in modern fashion. The show, featuring over 700 objects, including pieces from his vintage clothing collection, ceramics, rare designs, a recreation of his teenage bedroom, and a life-size glass tea house, will highlight his ability to draw on wide-ranging disciplines and cultural references, create iconic brands, and influence the worlds of fashion, music, architecture and interior design.
