TSTS

TSTS / TAKUYA SASAKI TEST SAMPLES is a fashion brand founded by designer Takuya Sasaki, a graduate of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp, and pattern maker Yurie Isashi.

The name “TEST SAMPLES” is derived from “Experimental Test Sample,” a term referring to items developed and used for testing before official issue. It reflects the brand’s experimental approach to garment making.

Built around the concept of duality, TSTS combines the everyday sensibility of Tokyo with surrealist elements and subtle humor. Its collections balance a social perspective with the simple pleasure of dressing up, creating clothing in which contrasting ideas coexist.
