Denim no Mimi
Denim no mimi (denim’s ear) is the Japanese word for selvedge, the unused edge of denim woven on large looms. This project, a collaboration between Kaihara, a textile corporation, and Edwin, uses selvedge and other waste materials to create artistic installations.
Below is their project displayed for public at main venue in Tokyo Midtown during Japan Fashion Week exhibition.
In this event, the Japan Jeans Association also sponsors an annual Best Jeanest Award that goes to the public figure who is voted to “wear jeans the best.” This year top prize went to Koda Kumi and Kamenashi Kazuya for the 3rd year in a row.

Wow, this was a really high quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this too - taking time and actual effort to make a good post… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and in no way appear to get something done.
