DOPE CUTTING CAPE

The design theme of "DOPE" is the word "dope", whose meaning has changed over time.

The item was inspired by the "transition" of a word that was originally used to mean "a thick liquid" or as a slang term for drugs, but later changed to have positive meanings such as "super cool" or "profound" in hip-hop culture.

Rinpa Context

Rinpa is a Japanese art movement that began in the early 17th century, known for its vibrant colors, bold compositions, and elegant ornamentation. It was founded by Honami Koetsu and Tawaraya Sotatsu, and later developed by Ogata Korin, from whom the name "Rinpa" (derived from Korin) originated. Rinpa artists stylized natural motifs such as flowers and waves against gold and silver backgrounds, creating striking and timeless works. KEIKO, the designer of BarBer & Apparel NK Supply, draws inspiration from this innovative and refined Rinpa tradition to embody the brand concept of "Unleashing Originality" and bring a new perspective to contemporary fashion and design.
