Founded by Teppei Fujita,  a fashion designer at Yojiyamamoto, Survam made its debut in Tokyo in the fall and winter of 2014. Since 2018, we have been developing our collection mainly in Paris, and we are steadily increasing our fans both in Japan and overseas. At the heart of the brand's design is the idea of ​​"clothes that will be part of you." Fujita focuses on complex tailoring and pattern making techniques, and adds details that create  playfulness and lightness. 

Japan is known for its gender-neutral social acceptance  in fashion. That's especially good for straight Sith men in "feminine" outfits. Needless to say, as a Japanese designer, Fujita does not prioritize unisex personality or take an over-the-top approach, but there are no gender-specific design restrictions. “Even in an uncertain world, you need to be confident, dress your favorite clothes  and move on.” 
 One of the key elements of the Spring / Summer 2021 collection was the  use of unexpected colors. .. The tailored style in neutral colors such as gray and black is accented with a pale pink lining and bold contrast panels peeking through the hem. Black,  often regarded as a "dark" color, was used to create thin, feather-light shirts that allow light to pass through and buzz in the wind. The perfect item for summer layers.
