Sacai – The Avant-Garde and Practical-Wear Super Brand
Avant-garde. Unique. Comfortable. Practical. Patchworked. Soft. Elegant. Strong.
If I combined these seemingly incongruous words to describe a single brand identity, would your fashion-obsessed little heart still be able to contain itself?
Yes, this strange fashion entity managed to win over celebrities and designers alike. This this Sacai, a game-changing original brand.
Sacai-Wearing Celebrities
For people who live and breathe fashion, Sacai and its founder’s story isn’t unfamiliar. Japanese designer Chitose Abe founded Sacai as early as 1999, and she spent over a decade perfecting the brand, which made her a late bloomer in the circle of fashion. Nowadays, the brand has gained significant influence and become a permanent fixture at Paris Fashion Week. Despite the limelight, Sacai maintains its clear and steady style at the core. And the designer Chitose Abe even received praise from Karl Lagerfeld, calling her work “the most interesting brand of the time.” For aesthetically fatigued fashion editors at ModeSens, whenever we hear a prominent figure call a brand or a product “really interesting” our hearts skip a beat.

But fashion belongs to those who dare. The key to success here is clever transition. The white band on the top tapers in at the end, creating a division between top and bottom. The result is a far more interesting outfit.
