Sacai to unveil new book during Paris Fashion Week

Fans of the Tokyo-based apparel label will get the chance to rub shoulders with brand founder Chitose Abe at the Colette concept store in Paris on March 9. The designer will have a double cause for celebration as she toasts Sacai's A/W 15-16 collection and the launch of "Sacai: A to Z," the first book to capture her fashion career.

Coinciding with the brand's 15th anniversary, "Sacai: A to Z" is the first comprehensive and highly personal look into the world of one of fashion's most innovative and multidimensional houses.

Lavishly illustrated with over 200 photographs and in-depth essays by influential fashion journalists Sarah Mower, Style.com's Tim Blanks and Angelo Flaccavento -- all presented in A to Z format, readers are given access for the first time into the world of Sacai.

Chitose Abe's design aesthetic, which melds highly conceptual designs with timeless wearability has made Sacai one of the most sought-after brands in fashion today. 

Sacai's first capsule collection for Nike will go on sale worldwide later this month. The range features sportswear and footwear combining cool styling and an eclectic mix of fabrics and proportions that has become Abe's trademark.

Still holding a full stake in the company, Abe has maintained her creative vision by prioritizing detail, creativity and innovation.

"Sacai: A to Z" - US $75.00 / Can $75.00 / UK £50.00

Visit the colette shop in Paris (213, rue Saint Honoré) on March 9 between 6 and 7pm to purchase the book and meet the designer in the flesh. The first 50 copies of the new book sold will be accompanied by a special edition silver bag.
