Yasuko Furuta created the brand TOGA in 1997. TOGA originates from the Greek word meaning “draped clothesâ€.
Graduate of Esmod Paris, Yasuko Furuta is a self-taught designer, who made a name for herself in Japan, where she worked as a freelance costume and fashion stylist.
Her first collection, presented in a showroom in 1997, caught the attention of many buyers and journalists.
In 2003, TOGA was awarded the Mainichi Fashion Awards for its Autumn-Winter 03-04 collection.
Distinguished by its exclusive fabrics research and experimental volumes, the TOGA silhouette is urban, deconstructed and avant-garde.
