Inspired by Japanese nature, culture, and philosophy, Kudo Shuji sculpts time itself. This is how VOGUE UK’s GQ edition describes the work of NODE by Kudo Shuji, one of the brands we carefully select, emphasizing slow fashion and uniqueness. Kudo Shuji, a renowned Japanese jewelry designer, is also an artist whose sculptures take the form of wearable pieces.
The September issue of GQ features an interview with famous actors Brad Pitt and George Clooney, who recently presented their new film together at the Venice Film Festival. GQ, one of the world’s leading magazines—especially in men's fashion and lifestyle—also supports emerging fashion brands. This is how they discovered Kudo Shuji and his remarkable designs.
Their collaboration extends to GQ's online shop, where selected pieces from NODE by Kudo Shuji will be available. We are hopeful that this exposure will benefit Kudo, granting him the well-deserved media attention his artistry commands.
When we traveled to Japan and spent time in Kudo's studio, we had the unique opportunity to observe his design process up close. His deep connection to Japanese heritage, combined with personal sensibility, results in stunning and uniquely crafted pieces. We are proud that our selection has been affirmed by such an esteemed publication, and we hope this collaboration brings success to both Kudo Shuji and GQ.
