■First Japanese male tailor to exhibit in Paris and Milan

DAVID LAYER is an order-made suit specialty store established by Tomohiko Banno, the president, and his younger brother Akihiro.

After participating in Milan Fashion Week (commonly known as the Milan Collection), they received an offer from an overseas agent to participate in the Paris Collection. Participation in the world's four major collections has been a dream of ours since our establishment, and we are the first Japanese male tailor to participate in both the Paris and Milan collections.

Original masks have been donated to Japanese schools in seven countries in the past.

When the new coronavirus was raging around the world and there was a serious shortage of masks, Tomohiko Banno, CEO of DAVID LAYER, decided to donate masks to Japanese schools in seven countries, including Paris, Milan, and New York in France, in the hope of "delivering masks that make people feel cheerful just by wearing them. The company has donated approximately 1,000 masks with Japanese patterned suit covers to Japanese schools in seven countries including Paris, Milan, and New York, France.

Since that time, we have wanted to promote Japanese patterns that give a sense of Japanese culture through masks, and we plan to use a lot of outer fabrics that fuse Japan and France in this new suit.



■Open "DAVID LAYER TOKYO" in Daikanyama, Tokyo, in response to many requests

DAVID LAYER offers nationwide on-site measurements and has owners all over Japan, from Hokkaido to Okinawa. After participating in the last Milano Collection, we were able to make contact with more customers, and in June 2024, we opened our second store, "DAVID LAYER TOKYO" in Daikanyama, Shibuya. From Shiga and Tokyo to the world, DAVID LAYER will continue to deliver the world's one and only suits that "create the self of your dreams".
