UNIFORM DESIGN by CHIE IMAI

When CHIE IMAI began her career as a flight attendant, the job was still considered a glamorous profession. She developed her fashion design sensibility while running an import and export business in addition to flying around the world as a young entrepreneur.

The diversity the world offers was an eye opening experience for her. She was aware of the beauty of the Japanese culture and history while learning about the uniqueness of other cultures and countries around the world.

In today’s digital age, everyone can easily access information about the whole world simply by going online. CHIE IMAI believes that for people able to share the beauty of Japanese history and culture they must first understand the diversity of the world.

We invite your team to explore the ideas of “Peace and Harmony” that are at the centre of CHIE IMAI’s uniform designs.

From Japan to the world and to the future…

“Peace” for the graduate students of Chiba University, doctoral course

Based on the traditional western style, we integrated “Hakata weave/ Obi textile” a traditional Japanese silk weave for the graduation ceremony.
Each gown was crafted with a sheet of 100% Hakata silk weave. We cut as little of the fabric as possible in the manufacturing process yet pulled all the designs together to form the gowns.
The folded gown is generally stored on a flat surface. its appearance will inspire you to think of Japanese traditional beauty. A generous amount of silk fabric was used to craft this design and both students and faculty will enjoy the luxurious feeling of the gown.
