TAYLOR WITH RESPECT 2024SS will be announced on April 9th.
This time, the collection will feature 2 new models and 4 new colors .
Did you see the explanation of tape that was published the other day?
This time we will be giving a quick explanation of another new model, the Bebop.
I hope this will be helpful for those who cannot attend the exhibition.
Here we go.

【 Description of item 】
The hexagonal design is based on jazz rhythm patterns.
The original parts, produced with advanced technology, are layered with acetate colors inspired by record jackets .
The sophisticated tailoring results in the materials' individuality bringing out the best in each other, like a concert between first-class musicians .
-------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the fifth combination model equipped with the original T-spine part.
It has evolved into void, stratus, cumulus, cask, and bebop.
This time, it appears in a polygonal, hexagonal shape for the first time.
◎ Here's the point
Of particular note is the way the front end is made .
The previously released Cask has a similar construction, but the acetate on the front is created by cutting.
The shape is created by carving, which gives the surface a somewhat flat appearance.
It's smooth, it's clear, and the surfaces come out neatly and correctly .
It's unfortunate that my photography skills aren't good enough to capture the texture, but I would encourage everyone to see the real thing.
The aesthetic appearance achieved through cutting is particularly evident in the bridge area.
Most eyeglasses are designed with a bulging bridge, which leaves a large gap where it overlaps with the flat T-spine.
Not only are there concerns about strength, but unnecessary gaps also don't look good.
By cutting, we were able to minimize the gap, resulting in a much better affinity with the T-spine.
(The parts require extremely high precision and are very time-consuming to make, so they are very expensive to purchase...)
A word from designer Waki-san ...
"It's not a basic hexagonal front, but the corners have been softened to make it a polygonal shape that is easy to wear."
This makes sense when you think about it, and it certainly gives a gentle impression within the polygon genre.
As was the case with the round cask, it shows how amazing Wakita is at elevating what would normally be difficult to hit into something that can be hit with ease .
As we introduced in the email newsletter the other day,
Team Taylor's super music fanatic, Asao-chan, gives a thorough explanation of "BEBOP."
As an amateur, it's all a mystery to me, but it's a field that seems like it would really resonate with people who are interested.
Roughly speaking, it is a type of jazz called bebop.
Lately, bebop has been playing as background music in the office all the time.

How was it, Bebop?
This model has been designed with much more thought than you would imagine, given its catchy polygonal shape.
The frequently released color 03 Clear Turquoise Blue is a color similar to the color on the Blue Note album jacket.
The Clear Smoke Purple in 04 is also a mysterious color that catches my eye, and the Smoke in 05 is a versatile Taylor color that is well-known among those in the know.
The color variations are really strong.
We are looking forward to seeing the reaction at the exhibition. Please look forward to it.
【 notice 】
The brand will hold its first solo exhibition on the final day of the exhibition, Thursday, April 11th.
DJ Asao-chan will be at the venue and will be playing bebop and nostalgic tapes.
I would be happy if you could experience the world view.
No reservations are required and we will be waiting for you with drinks and snacks. Look forward to it.
