IKITSUKE 品牌專訪|來自東京世田谷的輕鬆優雅風格
衣櫃裡總有一些服裝,不特別搶眼,卻總是讓你感到舒適自在,同時展現出細膩的品味。對東京世田谷區的居民而言,IKITSUKE 就是這樣一個特別的品牌。
IKITSUKE 由山本顯子(共同代表兼總店長)和山本幸正(共同代表兼品牌總監)夫婦於2018年12月創立於東京都世田谷區赤堤。兩人過去都在日本知名的選品店累積豐富經驗,以敏銳而細膩的眼光,打造出貼近居民日常的時尚品牌。
IKITSUKE 品牌名稱融合了「粋な着付け(有品味的穿搭)」與「街のイキツケ(常去的地方)」兩種意涵,希望透過輕鬆且不刻意張揚的服飾風格,成為每位顧客日常生活中喜歡且時常造訪的品牌。
品牌核心概念「穏やかな自己主張」,其意境可理解為:「不追求誇張耀眼,但也絕不平庸無趣;穿起來自在、剪裁優美,剛好展現出自己舒服的樣子。」IKITSUKE 正是以這樣的心情出發,設計並精選每一件商品。
從世田谷區赤堤的第一家店舖開始,IKITSUKE 一直堅持「透過貼心的溝通與互動,了解每位顧客的需求」,不刻意追逐流行,反而以貼合當地居民生活環境、簡約卻又不失品味的商品,逐步建立起深厚的客群。目前已在京王線沿線擁有三家店鋪:下高井戶本店、笹塚店和上北澤店。
IKITSUKE 期望每位穿上品牌服飾的顧客,都能在日常中自在而自信地展現自己的獨特品味。
或許有一天,你也會在IKITSUKE的服裝中,找到屬於自己的自在與優雅。
