Takahashi

Jun (1969). Japanese designer. He studied at the Burka Fashion College in Tokyo and, together with Nigo, who now designs the line, A Bathing Ape, he debuted at the lowest level of production with a line of T-“shirts that he named Nowhere. In 1994, he created his label, Undercover, for women, men, and children. His fashion is multi-layered, eclectic in choice of colors, and highly wearable. His success in Japan was so considerable that in a very short time he had opened 17 boutiques. He was soon noticed by Rei Kawakubo, the women behind Comme des Garµons, and he designed a minicollection for her. After his experience, Undercover began to be sold in the Comme des Garµons stores in Tokyo and in shops like Corso Como 10 in Milan.
