Abstract
The article is devoted to the recently deceased outstanding Japanese fashion designers, Mori Hanae, Takada Kenzo and Miyake Issey, who can rightfully be called pioneers of post-war Japanese fashion.
They not only created a cultural phenomenon based on the synthesis of Oriental and Western art, but also made a powerful breakthrough of Japanese clothing into the world’s catwalks, creating new trends which became widespread in many countries. The work highlights the most important moments of their biographies and work.
