CLEMENT SHIMIZU

Entrepreneur, 32

Seen at: The opening reception for "Isaac Arvold: Second Hand Emotion" at CO Exhibitions in Minneapolis.

What are you wearing? Pants from Elsworth Menswear, Aldo shoes, socks from SockmanSocks.com, handmade tie, Nixon watch, glasses from Visionary Optical.

Describe your style: My parents (a lingerie designer and a mad scientist) taught me to value quality construction, appreciate timeless design and take risks.

Where do you get your style inspiration? #FFFF00, #FF00FF, #00FFFF are computer graphics codes for yellow, purple and cyan. Max Headroom also dug these hip hues.

What trends are you looking forward to? Bright saturated graphics and photos will be printed onto women's clothing using large, high-quality digital textile printers. This is on the verge of becoming affordable enough to open the floodgates of young creatives ready to turn the textile industry upside down.

What's one thing that you can't live without? Bright colors.
