Cosmic Wonder: Light Streams
One of my favorite places I visited in Tokyo was the Center for Cosmic Wonder, home to Yukinori Maeda's fashion brand Cosmic Wonder and also used for various art events. You enter through a dark room to watch the "Light Streams" opening; models wander through an art exhibition where the audience is in the same space (watch here). You continue through a plant filled courtyard, and end up in a white room. All of the clothing is revealed from hidden doors.
