Menswear was, as usual, relegated to the back seat in the recent Tokyo collections, and only a handful of designers showed any. Given the quality of male models used on the runways, however, this was probably in the designers' best interests.
At Comme Ca, for example, one guy looked as if he was suffering from serious back problems, and at Irregular by Alfredo Bannister a middle-aged foreign model appeared onstage with glazed eyes and a definite drunken demeanor. As for local tarento Dave Spector's performance at Yuki Torii Homme . . . the less said, the better.
Fortunately, the clothes were a different story.
