Lamrof "BLPM T"
Lamrof
-Product Description-
Sidney Poitier was a pioneer among black actors, but he was criticized by black people for playing the role of a "black person who is liked by white people" and was left out of the running.
In the 1970s, he began making BLPM (Black Exploitation Movies) for black people as a director, and redesigned the jackets of the films from that era.
I felt that his story of being a pioneer black actor who joined the global film business, which was then white supremacist, and then returning to his roots in black culture, fit the concept of this season.
Above all, the original jacket design is the best.
Another feature of BLPM is that the film soundtracks are supervised by artists, and this work is also attractive in that it is supervised by "CURTIS MAYFIELD" and features the famous song by "THE STAPLE SINGERS."
The body is dyed in original colors and given a vintage treatment, and the print is finished with a distinctive glitter print based on a hand-blurred technique.

Lamrof
Designer: Daisuke Sakamoto
Lamrof was started in 2021 by Sendai-born designer Daisuke Sakamoto.
The brand name Lamrof is a reverse spelling of "Formal" that was popular among African-American jazz musicians in the 1940s, and means "wearing formal attire in an ideologically polarizing manner." It pays homage to the history and culture of African-Americans, which have had a huge influence on the world from the past to the present.
This highly unique, high-quality collection, which does not fall into the general trends of today, is fully infused with the designer's background, who has gained experience working for various famous brands and currently works on a number of visual creations.
