Stitch by Stitch to Make You Beautiful and Attractive
Shizuka Komuro is called " A Magician of Lace" and " An Adventurer in Material and
Color" as well. She says that a mixture of various colors has created the colors of today
and led her to the present. Tulip Noir which she created is now known as a color of
Shizuka Komuro. Her black is so profound and varied that a sensitive talent was required
to develop such a sophisticated color. Only a limited number of artisans are able to
create the new colors she desires, through an ongoing process of working with her and
discussing her requirements. We also allow a lot of time for trial and error in the
development of new materials. Shizuka Komuro has never made a compromise in
pursuing the originality, beauty, and ease of wear of her clothes. Consequently her
designs are sometimes so technically exacting that it is necessary to work closely
with the sewing staff to create original methods of construction for these garments.
The new methods are then delivered to the artisans. They are proud that they are the
only ones who can bring her wonderful designs and concepts to life.
Many manufacturers have tried to copy her works but people say taht the colors,
sewing techniques, and feeling totally differ from Shizuka Komuro's and subsequently
return as more enthusiastic fans of Shizuka Komuro.
Her work has always been supprted by Super Maison YOFUKUYA.
