Inspired by the spirit of London’s legendary Hyper Hyper market of the 1980s, where emerging designers and underground culture converged, the Tokyo edition carries that legacy of freedom, experimentation and creative independence into a contemporary setting.

Visitors will have the opportunity to discover and purchase independent collections and creative works, meet the people behind the brands, and experience a diverse gathering of fashion, art, beauty and lifestyle under one roof. Additional participants are expected to be announced.
More than a conventional market or exhibition, HYPER HYPER aims to create a meeting point for independent creative expression, unexpected discoveries and connections between artists, designers and audiences.

HLVTC, pronounced “Helvetic,” is an independent fashion label founded by designer Koji Yoshimura (yossy). Combining fashion-forward design with everyday functionality, the label places particular emphasis on material quality, comfort and precision in construction.
Drawing inspiration from the performance-driven principles of outdoor clothing, HLVTC explores innovative pattern-making and three-dimensional cutting techniques, from sculptural sleeves in shirts and jackets to ergonomic trouser silhouettes. Its collections of clothing and bags reflect a thoughtful relationship between materials, form, construction and the human body.
HYPER HYPER – TOKYO UNDERGROUND COLLECTIVE
@hyperhyper_official
HYPER HYPER is a culture platform, not a category.
Bringing together fashion, music, art, food, coffee, travel, beauty and independent creative communities, HYPER HYPER exists to introduce people to the ideas, places and creators that make life more interesting.
Built around the belief that culture grows through discovery and shared experiences, the platform creates space for independent voices, unconventional perspectives and creative expression beyond traditional boundaries.
Whether it’s fashion that inspires, music that moves or an artist waiting to be discovered, HYPER HYPER believes that the things we encounter and share can create meaningful connections.
Not everything is necessary for survival. Some things are necessary for a life worth living.
