KIKUKI MAKI

Japanese Fashion Designer
Her work has been described as a mixture between couture and street styles that began in Japan in the 1990's.
she does not believe clothing should cost hundreds of thousands of yen and wants to produce clothing that young Japanese women and teenagers can afford without walking around in overly expensive brands.
she designs for working woman but also creates clothing for woman who want something professional and energetic.
Maki creates a mixture of the new street inspired fashions that have been popular in Japan’s Harajuku district since the 1990s with the various different types of designs that have made the fashion industry what it is.
She does not work with other designers for any of her original designs and is proud of her handmade products.
Many of her clothing lines take on themes such as hope or love to reflect the current economic downturn and social attitudes of Japanese culture in the current decade.
