This past Friday, Starbucks opened the doors to its new outpost located in an ancient Japanese tea house in Kyoto’s historic Higashiyama district. Months before opening, the coffee giant had received backlash from locals in the community who were concerned that the store would not fit in with the conservative surroundings. Instead of a modern aesthetic, Starbucks whole-heartedly imbued traditional Japanese design for its two-story teahouse that was constructed over 100 years ago. For example, instead of its glowing green sign, a dark blue noren—a Japanese fabric divider affixed to doorways—is embellished with the Starbucks logo in black to welcome guests to the shop. Moreover, the ground floor features bright-colored wood which directs visitors to several Japanese Zen gardens in the front, back and center sections of the space.

Yesterday, we reported on Jenny Meirens’ sad passing, but it’s necessary to showcase just why she was so important to Maison Martin Margiela. The fashion world is undoubtedly in debt to Margiela: he and Helmut Lang are two designers who have inspired a large section of the today's fashion community. Even Raf Simons – currently acknowledged as one of the most influential designers today – counts Margiela as a source.
