After graduating from Bunka Fashion College in the Shinjuku district of Tokyo, designer Seishin Matsui established his own menswear label, SISE.

On the surface of it, the SISE aesthetic is modern and simplistic, but the minimalistic designs are executed with impeccable tailoring for a smart, European-influenced sensibility. Usually keeping with a pared back palette of black, white and grey with occasional injections of brights, the simplified colours allow the subtle beauty of Seishin Matsui’s detailing to shine through.

SISE has been a highlight of the Fashion Week Tokyo Collection calendar since autumn winter 2010.
