  Beauty:Beast emerged in 1990 amidst Tokyo’s Ura-Harajuku punk scene, blending sensuous folklore with aggression and nihilism. Founded by Takao Yamashita, the brand symbolized rebellion against societal norms and parental disapproval.

Influenced by Westwood and McLaren’s Seditionaries, the brand’s unique creations, like the “Dark Knight” rabbit-shaped backpack, garnered attention in Paris during the 90s.
