Noriyuki Shimizu began his fashion career at Bunka Fashion College and, upon graduating, worked as a pattern maker for various brands around Japan. In 2010, he branched out and launched a men’s RTW brand titled “Name.”. He led that brand as head designer for eight years and then decided to test his skills even further with the launch of his second brand, “WELLDER”.
WELLDER is a unisex brand offering a casual yet sophisticated take on modern garbs. For the most part, patterns are cut generously to allow for effortless layering while also exuding a sense of youthful vigor. This is witnessed in their S/S ’22 campaign with outfits like this one, with its unique collar situated on the sweatshirt and clay red color tone, finished off with a wide-fitting pattern block to match the silhouette of the relaxed cargo pants.
