These are dope! I heard about this brand for quite a while now but never got to checking them out first hand till recently.
Well, is it? A couple of months old in terms of the video/documentary in this post, but its still relevant. Probably as relevant years ago when there were a lot of cameras to pick from. Anyways… Lee Morris of Fstoppers.com shoots a full fashion photography session with the iPhone 3Gs.

Christian Peau is a Japanese fashion house whose design is understood to bridge the gap between modern avant-garde and classical artisan-based fashion. Unlike many cutting edge Japanese designers that have emerged from the last 10 years, Peau’s is much more European in nature. His influences lie in the traditionl artisans from the early 1800s who were understood to be masters in their trade. Drawn from traditional shoemaking and leather master craftsmen,Christian Peau has reinvented the avant-garde in a modern and beautiful manner.
The emphasis is on handmade leather garments—each shoe is made by hand in Japan with an assortment of hand-stained, painted and washed leathers that are compounded and nailed together for a truly unique outcome.
