Dear Shaded Viewers,
Today I was invited to the Japan expo outside of Paris by NHK TV from Tokyo. Crowds of French youth swarmed the immense exhibition space and the place was literally quaking with excitement. I got a real kick out of all the French youth cosplaying.
When the group show began the crowd went crazy. You could not really say that these were creative and innovative collections but the potential market seemed to enjoy what was happening on stage.
The first collection was Alba Rosa, here are a few looks from that:
I thought that the accessories were quite fun. I am always searching for the perfect pair of platform shoes or boots, I have a feeling that I would find them once I got to Japan.
The short boots are from Alba Rosa and the high ones from Tokyo Mix
The Tokyo Style finale and an image of the team from NHK. Kaori Kaiho is the produceer, Daisuke Kunikiyo is the principal Cameraman and I never did get the name of the soundman.
Later,
Diane
