Born in Fukushima, Japan in 1985. Gained industry experience in Belgium and Italy, then presented his collection in the U.S., Germany, New Zealand, Singapore, and China, receiving many awards. Established RYOTA SHIGA in 2011, changing the name to SHIGA when first exhibiting during Paris Fashion Week in 2014. Working with a theme of harmony between nature and humanity, his designs have untamed elegance, but are delicate and communicate a supple strength. Ryota Shiga was selected for taking his design inspiration from the relationship between nature and humanity, and creating garments that incorporate the techniques of skilled craftspeople from around Japan. He had clear potential to make a social contribution as a brand capable of invigorating apparel manufacturing.
