Photographer Yasumasa Yonehara is widely known for his photographs of girls in seductive poses. Recently, Yone has collaborated with Japanese model Aki Hoshino on the “Sneaker Lover” book where Aki poses with some of the most sought after sneakers. Now together with KIKS TYO, they have created a series of six limited edition t-shirts based on photographs from the book. Here are the first two which includes the “One the Bed” tee and the “At the Beach” tee. All customers who pre-order this tee will be entered into a draw for the new Medicom Toy KIKS TYO x Aki Hoshino Kubrick (blue version). Available now at the KIKS TYO Shop.
We recently covered the latest three-way project between model Aki Hoshino, photographer Yone and Japanese label KIKS TYO on their book Sneaker Lover. Select images from the book have made their way onto t-shirts available for sale now through KIKS TYO.
Japanese actress/model Aki Hoshino and KIKS TYO were trend-setters in their own right as they blazed the trail with their racy sneaker inspired t-shirts. They recently teamed up with photographer Yasumasa Yonehara in the creation of the book Sneaker Lover. We recently had a chance to interview the two regarding some of their background history and their thoughts on the book itself. The interview can be seen here.
The book is currently available through KIKS TYO and their online shop with a price listed at $17 USD.
