Last year, stylist Naoki Ikeda successfully held a special exhibition "Menswear Designer Adam Kimmel and New York Aesthetics," which exploded his love for the extremely personal Adam Kimmel.
The second project, titled "Stylist's stylist Ray Petri and the '80s London Fashion Editorial Exhibition," will focus on London in the '80s.
THE FACE" and "i-D" have a special place in the hearts of fashion and culture lovers. 80's London was a time when punk, new romanticism, mod revival, reggae, hip-hop, and other genres and people that had previously existed separately, mixed their values in discos, clubs, and other spaces. Ikeda-san says that London in the 80s was a time when people and genres that had previously existed separately, such as punk, new romanticism, mod revival, reggae, and hip-hop, mixed their values through discos and clubs.
The aforementioned magazine was born in a scene of fascinating chaos at the time, and Ray Petri accurately expressed that mood in his magazine.
A few years ago, I happened to find a copy of "THE FACE" from 1985 in Jimbocho, which contained pages that had a strong impact on me, as I had seen in "Buffalo," a collection of Ray Petri's works published after his death. However, the layout, the volume of the features, the items, and the crecit゙t of the staff, and other information and atmosphere that could only be obtained from the magazine gave Ray Petri's styling, which I had thought I knew, a new appeal.

Dozens of "THE FACE" and "ARENA" books are gathered around the work of Ray Petry, who had a profound influence on later creators and artists through his activities from 1983 to 1989. It is a kind of retrospective through the filter of stylist Naoki Ikeda.
