第29話: HaruyakkoがKogire TextilesとTsutsugaki Patternsを用いてKikushima Brandを蘇らせる

29

Fujita and Sarah are impressed by the performance and the clothing design of Haruyakko at a gay bar. Later, Haruyakko's father, the founder of the Kikushima haute couture design brand dies, and Haruyakko argues with his older brother Aiko about the design of the clothes which have become predictable, causing the brand to be in decline. Aiko then assigns Haruyakko to lowly delivery duties. While Haruyakko helps his grandmother select clothes for a few days away, he discovers her colorful kogire[d] collection featuring tsutsugaki designs from the Edo period. Haruyakko is inspired by the fabric and patterns, and his grandmother unknowingly gives him moral support. Later, Haruyakko's grandmother is sent to a nursing home and Fujita buys all the kogire. However, Fujita helps Haruyakko to have his first fashion show featuring Tsutsugaki designs and kogiree pieces at Gallery Fake on the condition he provide Fujita with some of his designed pieces. The fusion of European and Japanese design by Haruyakko excites everyone, including his grandmother who was invited to the show. (Source: Wikipedia)
