ABOUT
CONCEPT
The word LOKITHO was coined by the designer KIMURA,
combining LOKI, the Scandinavian God of fire and mischief,
with CLOTHO, the Greek Goddess of fate who spins the thread of life.
Like an inheritor of LOKI’s charming mischievous mind,
LOKITHO loves witty and joyous women.
Taking inspiration from the rich Japanese cultural identity
LOKITHO creates elegant and urban collections.
