Although there have have been books on Hussein Chalayan published in recent years to accompany exhibitions of the clothing designer’s that have been held worldwide, this unique and beautiful book contains Chalayan’s drawings reflecting the process of his explorations of “conceptual” design.

フセイン・チャラヤンの作品集。これまでにもフセイン・チャラヤンの作品集は出版されたり、他の図版で紹介されてはきていたが、この本はドローイング等も収録し、より詳細にファションデザインにおけるデザインプロセスを捉えることからコンセプチュアルと評される彼のデザインの背後を明らかにしようとしている。
