Today we’d like to introduce you to Sho Konishi.
Hi Sho, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I graduated from three fashion schools in Tokyo, Paris, and NY. My last college I graduated in 2019 and I have started my brand since then. I do multiple works as different directions, but all I do is about Fashion. I teach fashion design, and I have started my online fashion education system “Sho_Konishi_Design_Lab” in 2017 where I support young generations to apply to fashion/art colleges for their study abroad or publish their brands. I make made-by-order items of clothing for my clients and make ready-to-wear collection for NY Fashion Week.
After I worked for Tokyo Paralympics opening ceremony in 2021 in Tokyo, I also started to work in Tokyo as costume designer and stylist.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I feel I am lucky. I had some struggles until now, but I feel so blessed that I came this far. But finance was/is always made my journey difficult since I was from a poor family. And Language.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
