Dear Shaded Viewers,

The first stop this morning was the Yuima Nakazato showroom  to see his new gender collection. I missed it because it went on the night before I arrived in Tokyo. I asked Yuima Nakazato to model the collection for me minus the shoes. I've been following his collection since he was a student at the Royal Academy of Antwerp. I caused a slight panic when I said I did not feel like taking off my shoes, Akiko Hamaoka came up with the perfect solution,  a newspaper runway.
