Viviano Sue is a Japanese designer who graduated in 2014 from the prestigious Bunka Fashion College, Tokyo. He uses his work to build a bridge between cultures, having lived in both the USA and China. It was therefore only natural that the East and West should influence his choice of textiles, as well as the shapes and colours of his creations.
In 2013, Viviano Sue founded his own studio, House of Viviano Sue, which was quickly noticed by international fashion magazines. The designer seeks to be ‘at the head of the avant-garde’, as stated on his website. He then expanded his work to include ready-to-wear men’s and women’s clothing as well as bags and accessories, as part of a fashion universe that’s always fantastical.
More information on House of Viviano Sue can be found on the brand’s website.
