ANREALAGE and FOREARTH Collaborate for the third time at Paris Fashion Week 2025 AW
A collaborative work designed and produced by Mr. Kunihiko Morinaga of the Japanese fashion brand “ANREALAGE,” using fabric printed with our inkjet textile printer “FOREARTH,” was presented at Paris Fashion Week 2025 AW.
This is ANREALAGE’s third Paris Fashion Week collaboration with FOREARTH, following the previous one for Paris Fashion Week 2025 SS. Of the 24 outfits presented at the show, 20 were printed with FOREARTH fabrics.
The Paris Fashion Week Women's Collection takes place in Paris, France, from Monday, March 3, to Tuesday, March 11, 2025. ANREALAGE’s show, held on March 5, unfolded in a stunning runway setting within the American Cathedral, a gothic basilica built in the late 19th century and designated as a historical landmark. Situated along rue Georges Cinq, the venue bridges the Champs-Élysées and the Seine, placing it at the heart of Paris. The mesmerizing music of French electronic duo and former Daft Punk member Thomas Bangalter, combined with Morinaga's innovative collection of prints and lights, was a huge hit. Mr. Morinaga’s creations transformed the space, seamlessly blending fashion, art, and historic architecture into an unforgettable experience for all in attendance.
Textured fabrics, such as jacquard, were used in this collaboration, with FOREARTH's printing technology highly praised for its ability to manage the fabric's uneven surface while ensuring vibrant color reproduction. Enhancing this innovation, FOREARTH's water-independent, location-free printing enables equipment to be installed near design and production sites, allowing for greater flexibility in creative workflows with minimal lead time.
Comment from Kunihiko Morinaga
The collaboration between ANREALAGE and Kyocera has now entered its third phase, and for this collection, we explored a new form of expression under the theme of “SCREEN,” where garments themselves become mediums that project light. Leveraging FOREARTH’s eight-color ink printing technology, we achieved vibrant color expression that goes beyond the limitations of conventional CMYK four-color printing, successfully capturing the brilliance of RGB (Red/Green/Blue) – the three primary colors of light. This enabled us to create visual effects that give the impression of illumination without compromising the integrity of the fabric. Additionally, the pigment ink adhered seamlessly to textured materials such as jacquard and velvet, preserving their natural feel while expanding the possibilities of textile expression.
In this collection, we challenged the idea of projecting multiple designs onto black screen-textile garments printed by FOREARTH, allowing a single piece to embody diverse visual expressions. By breaking free from static design constraints and redefining fashion as a more dynamic and fluid medium, our vision aligned deeply with FOREARTH's concept of “Creative Free.” Through these three collaborations, I have come to realize even more strongly the potential of advanced printing technology to expand the boundaries of fashion expression.
