Overview

EL MIDAS is a Japanese women's clothing brand established in 1970. Its name derives from King Midas of Greek mythology, and the brand was founded with the image of everything he touched turning to gold and a sense of caution against arrogance. Its concept is “quality, refinement, kindness, and charm,” with “tradition and innovation” as its theme. The brand plans, manufactures, and sells women's clothing, accessories, and other items. A LUXE line made with imported fabrics was introduced starting with the fall/winter 2016–17 season.

A derived line of EL MIDAS introduced from Fall/Winter 2016–17 as part of the rebranding for the brand’s 45th anniversary. It began with coats made from imported fabrics such as those from Loro Piana and Agnona, and initially focused on coats, with plans to expand the range of items in stages. It was intended to appeal to top-tier department store customers and positioned above the main EL MIDAS line in its material selection and product assortment. Among the existing womenswear lines, it plays a role in strengthening the offering of products with higher added value.
