Japanese label Children of the Discordance to stage show at Pitti Uomo
Japanese brand Children of the Discordance will take the spotlight at Florence's Pitti Uomo with a fashion show scheduled for the evening of Tuesday, June 17, at the Stazione Leopolda. Organized in collaboration with the Japan Fashion Week Organization, the event highlights Children of the Discordance as the special feature of the upcoming edition of Pitti Uomo (June 17–20). The brand will also be featured at the Florentine trade show with a dedicated space inside the Fortezza da Basso, as part of the 'Futuro Maschile' section, which focuses on contemporary menswear. 'Children of the Discordance is one of the brands we've been watching most closely over the past few seasons,' said Francesca Tacconi, special events coordinator at Pitti Immagine. 'Since its debut at Pitti Uomo a few years ago under the Tokyo Fashion Award banner, we've appreciated founder Hideaki Shikama's independent vision and his ability to merge archival elements with the fast-paced language of streetwear—all through a forward-looking design lens.' 'We've been part of the Pitti community ever since we won the Tokyo Fashion Award eight years ago. Today, I'm truly grateful for the chance to return five years later to present my collection in a runway show at the event that helped grow my business partnerships. My pieces draw inspiration from the complex cultural landscape I experienced growing up in a Japanese port city like Yokohama, and I try to infuse that cultural essence into every piece I create,' said Hideaki Shikama. Born in 1980, Hideaki Shikama founded Children of the Discordance in 2011 and won the Tokyo Fashion Award in 2017. He has previously presented his collections in Tokyo, New York and Paris. His fashion career began in 2005 when he was appointed director of Acycle, a multibrand store in Harajuku, Tokyo. The Children of the Discordance runway show adds another high-profile highlight to the already rich calendar of Pitti Uomo's summer edition, which also includes appearances by Issey Miyake, Paf-Post Archive Faction and Niccolò Pasqualetti.
