Excerpt: FETICO. FALL 2023 - TOKYO FASHION WEEK

"...The lingeire outwear styles took a back seat when the 2020 pandemic hit, although Casey Cadwallader's imprint for Mugler with his very Eros and sexualized looks did indeed hold the line throughout the pandemic.  The more subtle and sensual styles have yet to reemerge, and it appears we are still facing the blunt reality of global turmoil as the reflecting template.  And it seems that fashion being that tuned aesthetic of change, has aligned itself in lieu of what could be further calamity ahead.  Funiyama, has maintained the more blunt of libidinous styles which is surprising and inspiring to see from a Japanese designer, where sexuality is less revealing in Japanese culture as opposed to the West's feigned overhype.  

This was Funiyama's second runway show since the inception of Fetico, with the brand still in its infancy, there is certainly room to grow and mature for the many seasons to come."
