ANTEPRIMA SPRING-SUMMER 2026
COLLABORATION with IWASAKI TAKAHIRO

Continuing its long-standing dialogue between fashion and contemporary art, ANTEPRIMA proudly announces an extraordinary collaboration with internationally acclaimed Japanese artist Iwasaki Takahiro for the Spring–Summer 2026 collection.
Known for transforming humble, everyday materials into intricate and poetic forms, Iwasaki Takahiro’s work explores themes of fragility and resilience, impermanence and reconstruction, as well as memory and perception. These sensibilities resonate deeply with ANTEPRIMA’s philosophy of creating wearable art, where refined craftsmanship becomes a medium for quiet expression and thoughtful design.

Expanding the collaboration’s exploration of everyday objects, the collection introduces a sculptural WIREBAG inspired by the familiar form of a hand brush. Crafted in ANTEPRIMA’s signature raffia wire, the design reinterprets the ANTEPRIMA logo, transforming the ordinary into a poetic, wearable object.

Building upon WIREBAG’s iconic Glitter Bag, these designs introduce a refined artistic detail—a beaded crane motif positioned at the opening, reflecting a thoughtful alignment with Iwasaki Takahiro’s artistic language. Crafted entirely from 99.9% pure silver wirecord, the collection is presented in two silhouettes. Together, these luminous pieces embody a refined balance of symbolism, precision, and wearable artistry.
