ARAMAME IS A COLLABORATION BETWEEN LEGENDARY JAPANESE PHOTOGRAPHER NOBUYOSHI ARAKI AND DESIGNER MAIKO KUROGOUCHI, FOUNDER OF THE FASHION LABEL MAME. RATHER THAN PRODUCING A CONVENTIONAL LOOKBOOK, KUROGOUCHI INVITED ARAKI TO REINTERPRET THE BRAND’S SEASONAL COLLECTION THROUGH HIS ICONIC LENS — KNOWN FOR ITS MIXTURE OF TENDERNESS, DESIRE, AND EROTICISM.

THE RESULT IS A VISUAL DIALOGUE THAT SURPASSES THE BOUNDARIES OF FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY. THE BOOK COMBINES IMAGES FROM THE PHOTOSHOOT WITH ARAKI’S OWN ARCHIVE — INCLUDING ARRANGEMENTS OF FLOWERS, PUPPETS, AND SYMBOLIC OBJECTS — PRESENTED IN HIS SIGNATURE COLLAGE STYLE. ARAMAME IS BOTH A DOCUMENT OF CRAFT AND A STUDY OF SENSUALITY, BEAUTY, AND TRANSIENCE.
