In the rainy season, it feels like a different world. Publisher Shimamura introduces a digest of the press preview of the 2022 Fall/Winter new products held at Wako, a landmark in Ginza XNUMX-chome!
The first thing that caught my eye were the colorful WAKO bucket bags. This bag was created through a collaboration between Mauro Governa, a famous Italian workshop, and Wako. This time, a Japanese designer seems to have been inspired by the bamboo packaging for Sendai miso. The round bucket-shaped bag was very popular at the venue due to its cute appearance, outstanding storage capacity, and wide variety of colors. The large size can easily fit A4 size and a notebook PC. The small size is perfect for short outings. Winter outfits tend to have a lot of dark colors, so a colorful and uniquely shaped bag would be a great accent.
Immediately after entering the press preview venue, there was a display of Mauro Governa bags. I couldn't help but pick it up.
The large (estimated price 187,000 yen) is available in 6 colors, and the small (estimated price 154,000 yen) is available in 8 colors. Scheduled to be released in August 2022. Both include tax.
Another item that excited the audience was the Wako made by Faliello Sarti, a long-established Italian stole maker.75This is a cashmere stole.1947Established in 2007, taking over the retail division of Hattori Watch Store (currently Seiko Holdings),75Wako is celebrating its 20th anniversary. It is famous for its show window displays, which can be said to be the "face of Ginza," and this stall has many of those displays as its pattern.2022A white tiger with winking eyes,2016I've seen this before, such as the slumbering polar bear family in ``Akatsuki''! I think I can hear that voice. It is drawn in a colorful and humorous style by Paola Fumi, a popular Italian illustrator.
The Wako 75 Year Cashmere Stole is scheduled to go on sale from August 8th. The size is quite large at 26 x 140 cm. Limited to 180 pieces, 150 yen (tax included).
Don't forget about Wako jewelry. As a jewelry lover, this is a corner you can't miss. Speaking of Wako, they sell unique and beautifully cut diamonds called Ashoka diamonds, and towards the end of the year they were introducing Ashoka diamond jewelry that would be perfect as a gift.
WAKO Jewelry FOCUS Necklace 341,000 yen (tax included) Scheduled to be released from November.
What was interesting was the unisex blazer. A simple navy blue blazer made by an Italian tailor called CARUSO. It's made with lightweight, high-quality materials and has a sleek, trendy silhouette, but it's made in Italy. It has a clean finish and I couldn't help but want it.
The new "Drop Zero" model from CARUSO. Available in sizes 42, 44, 46, 48, and 50, and is offered in unisex sizes. Ginbure Estimated price: 165,000 yen (tax included) Scheduled to be released from September 9th.
In addition to this, I have seen a lot of good things that will be released this fall. Wako has the image of being a bit difficult to enter, but once you step inside, you'll find it full of attractive products. High quality and hospitality are guaranteed. Why not go and experience the brands that represent Ginza? I would like to continue to introduce Ginza, a city that I love.
