The spring 12 collection is a collaboration of the designers Kaito Hori and Iku Furudate who first launched the Commuun name with their Spring and Summer collection in 2006. The focus of the Commuun collections has consistently been the restructuring of nature, and finding the balance between strong form and finesse. The designers spend time choosing the perfect fabrics to use for each collection, and their use of fine French detail and cuttings has often added a softness to the force of the garment’s form. Commuun’s SS12 show took place on the Docks en Seine overlooking the water. In this collection, Hori and Furudate introduced evening-wear for the first time, and focused especially more on the experimentation of fabric play as well as with geometry and heightened precision.
