“HAND-PAINTING PERFORMANCE AT DESPERADO TOKYO” 2015

DESPERADO opened in 2000 with the theme of fusing “fashion” and “art,” and “things” and “people.”
From its opening until today, we have had many encounters with designers, artists, and those who truly love fashion and art.
While cherishing these encounters, DESPERADO has been reborn as a community store, aiming to fuse “things” and “events,” and designers and artists with those who seek them
. DESPERADO carries clothing and accessories from young Japanese and international designers and artists, carefully selected by buyer Eiichi Izumi, who has traveled the globe to select the perfect selection
. At DESPERADO, we never display our clothing on our bodies. We encourage our customers to freely choose their clothes through communication with our staff, the inspiring atmosphere of our store, and the various experiences that take place there
. We select and buy items that bring more joy over time than they did the day they were purchased. Rather than simply pursuing trends, we aim to offer items whose design and essence are timeless, whose value grows, and which ultimately become beloved and considered a great value.
Fashion is something wonderful, fun, and familiar. It belongs to each individual, and I hope it becomes something more personal

About Desperado

Desperado started in 2000 with the shop concept of fusion of “fashion” and “art,” “products” and “people.” From its start there have been so many encounters of designers, artists, and those who love fashion and art deeply. Respecting these encounters, renewal as “community store” was made in 2013 aiming at fusion of “products” and “experiences,” designers/artists and those who look for them.

Desperado deals cloths and goods of overseas and domestic young designers and artists, selected by buyer, Eiichi Izumi, flying around the world markets. Desperado never exhibits cloths on bodies. We would like our customers enjoy selection of cloths freely, through communication with our staff as well as inspiration from our shop floor and many things happening there.
Buying is made to choose products which give joy that will increase over time from the moment of purchase. It is not just chasing the fashion but offering products whose design and can essentially fit in any times, increasing their value, so that our customers feel great affection and “good buy” for them.
We hope fashion is something wonderful, fun, familiar, and very personal for each owner.
