TOTEME staged its first art exhibition in Japan at the iconic StandBy Gallery in Tokyo in November 2025. 

In ‘Silhouettes’, renowned Swedish artist Mats Gustafson interpreted the Fall Winter 25 collection through large-scale watercolors that distilled each look to its purest form: shape, proportion, and texture. Presented alongside film from the Paris runway show, the works transformed precise garments into organic gestures, expressing the structure and ease that define TOTEME. 

Known for his elegant and minimal aesthetic that redefined the language of fashion illustration, Mats Gustafson rendered TOTEME’s sculptural silhouettes in essential line and tone. Taw cement surfaces served as both backdrop and counterpoint to the delicacy of the works, drawing attention to their material presence.
