Fujimoto\u2019s designs, including his blue glass shopping centre in Miami and the latticed 2013 Serpentine Gallery Pavilion, have been reinterpreted as outfits for the brand\u2019s latest collection.<\/p>\n

Akris creative director Albert Kriemler met the architect while he was working on the Universit\u00e9 Paris-Saclay, after being introduced by photographer Iwan Baan. \u201cI have been admiring Sou Fujimoto\u2019s work and his unique approach to architecture for quite some time,\u201d said Kriemler.<\/p>\n

\"Swiss<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are architects whose vision is close to what fashion really is about \u2013 creating a relation between the body and the environment that helps human beings to live comfortably,\u201d he added. \u201cSou is an architect who understands that we have more senses than just the eye.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Swiss<\/p>\n

Presented at the Grand Palais during Paris Fashion Week, each of the 49 looks in the collection is based on an architectural work. The outfits were organised into small groups that represented specific projects, with some of the references more direct than others.<\/p>\n

The show opened with a collection of black and white garments peppered with different sized holes, based on the gaps in the roof of Fujimoto\u2019s proposed House of Hungarian Music.<\/p>\n

Images of the tree-filled House N were printed onto a shirt, trousers and a tunic made from silk cre\u0302pe, as well as an organza parka. Dresses made from strips of cork echoed the building\u2019s wooden floors.<\/p>\n

A replica of the house, which features large punctures in its white facades, was also built at the top of the catwalk.<\/p>\n
