Fashion brand Anrealage designs the new uniforms for NTT Pavilion staff at Expo 2025 taking place in Osaka. It is made to keep a cool temperature under pressure using technology integrated into the jackets. Japan prepares for the international event with avant-garde looks which have been uniquely finished with integrated fans to assist with the heat.
The Expo 2025 is running from April until October, noting that Osaka temperatures will only be rising, the outerwear is designed to combat that. The lower left side is made with a small electric fan. When it is turned on, it inflates the jacket to create a new billowing shape to cool down the body. Visually, it has a cloud-like look, which is also aligned with the 'parallel travel' theme of the pavilion this year.
