Normally #ChitoseAbe comes to #Paris only for her #women’srunway collections, so it was a treat to find her in a temporary showroom today, hours after her #men’s show and shortly before her return to #Tokyo. It’s not that she shared any revelatory backstory to her #Sacai Resort collection, which pretty much hewed to her signature mastery of opposites attract. Her presence simply helped form a closer association between character and craft. Abe had every reason to be proud of her homage to a crochet quilt; its colorful patchwork arrangement had been printed atop #lace so that, from a distance, the openwork could have been either. As a #poncho broken up by #denim, the treatment was unpretentious and ingenious. In a similar vein, only upon close inspection might you discover hibiscus flowers embedded within a grid of lace. #WomensFashion
