DOI - a London born brand,
created by former fashion model Akemi Doi

English / Japanese

DOI launched in 2006 from London's Portobello neighbourhood , the gathering place of many designers and artists. The brand then began to spread in the popular East London areas of Brick Lane and Spitalfields. Both elegant and powerful, the boldly cut jackets became the focus of many fashion conscious Londoners and in addition gained the highest praise from fashion leaders in countries such as France, Italy, Germany and Denmark.

In two and a half years, the list of customers in London has risen to over five thousand.

Having worked as a fashion model and fashion co-ordinator for fifteen years, the designer has cultivated an eye for selecting such materials which are well fitting yet will flexibly wrap around the body to create superior comfort.
