Midwinter Sheep Tug 4 colours

Finally, I chose one photo of a sheep and drew with Illustrator, had a couple of times discussion between me and a weaver who lives in Fukui-prefecture. About a few weeks later My brand-new Midwinter sheep tug comes up! I named on each colour tug. The size is about a half business card.

About me

Born in Japan 1972. The small town near Setonaikai. After local high school, enter a Japanese fashion college. Finished two years BA course and one year MA course. Become a pattern cutter soon after those three years of education. Total four Japanese fashion companies I worked in. Eight years in Osaka 1993-2001. Ten years in Tokyo 2001-2010. I made so many women' constructions and at the same time, met more than a dozen designers I worked for.

The life-changing moment comes in 2008. Dramatically recruited to get the course Master of Design Fashion & Textiles at The Glasgow School of Art in Scotland. I decided to go abroad to study. About two years later, 2010-2012 live in Glasgow. and successfully accomplished the Master's study in Autumn 2012.

Currently living in Yokohama Japan, developing my own original brand Midwinter and MIDSUMMER. And they officially appeared since Feb 2018.
