Widely hailed as the “godfather of streetwear,” Hiroshi Fujiwara has shaped global culture for over three decades, fusing fashion, music, and design into an unmistakable vision of cool. From his early collaborations with Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood to his central role in Tokyo’s Harajuku scene, Fujiwara pioneered the intersections of punk, hip-hop, and skate culture, defining the aesthetics of an era and inspiring generations to come.
This first comprehensive monograph chronicles Fujiwara’s extraordinary career: iconic sneaker designs and long-standing partnerships with Nike, groundbreaking fashion lines, graphics, and product design, as well as intimate glimpses into his curated personal universe. A musician, producer, and endlessly inventive tastemaker, Fujiwara continues to expand the boundaries of contemporary design culture.
With contributions by Sarah Lerfel and Ino Hidefumi, Fragment is both a visual archive and a tribute to one of the most influential figures in fashion and street culture, a book that captures the spirit of innovation and style that made Fujiwara a legend.
