Designer Alert! Japan’s Noritaka Tatehana
The Gaga wore his shoes on a Japanese TV show. They were a pair of sky high, heelless platforms. The chance occurrence of the theatrical singers wearing his vertiginous platforms, took a young cobbler from obscurity to prodigy with one three-minute clip. He is Japanese designer Noritaka Tatehana.
The 25-year-old is a recent graduate of the Tokyo National University of Arts, where he studied traditional Japanese dyeing and weaving techniques. Working from his studio, about an an hour outside of Tokyo, Tatehana custom-makes all of his creations by hand.
When asked who he designs for, he replied, for those, “who have a high regard for individuality. My shoes aren’t really for everyday wear, so I don’t get orders from ordinary people.”
