Black hair that stretches smoothly on the beautifully aligned bangs, gentle yet strong eyes, and bright red lip. Koge Akimoto, a model that everyone will never forget when they see it once, is now attracting attention from all over the world. In order to unravel her style, I listened to the story while visiting shops that I was interested in at Shibuya PARCO. First of all, go to "JOHN LAWRENCE SULLIVAN", a brand that Akimoto has been using for a long time in his private life.

Living in a solid space
Strength and elegant
"JOHN LAWRENCE SULLIVAN" (John Lawrence Sullivan)", where an industrial space like using the warehouse as it is without dare to give out a shop sign. It is a newly managed store with a full line of men and women. The Women's Line, which started at SS in 2010, features a masculine style that incorporates the basic concept of men'swear centered on tailored to women. This Shibuya PARCO store has a lot of women's line items, so you should be able to meet a slightly different outfit from other stores.
Regardless of men's or women's
"If you like yourself, you can wear anything."
"I used to wear men's clothes more often in the past," says Akimoto, who appeared on this day in a manish style like JOHN LAWRENCE SULLIVAN that matches a men's size jacket with a leopard pattern dress. "I don't want to be caught by men, ladies, or genre, and I think I can wear anything if I like it. I think Shibuya and Harajuku are especially such cities. A building like Shibuya PARCO is one of the good things is that even if you have a shop you want, you can learn about new brands, discover and meet along the way."

From a German film director and choreographer
This season's Sullivan presented a collection inspired by the performance of German film director Vim Venders' Wings of Desire, as well as German contemporary dance choreographer and dancer Pina Bausch. The long coat, where the tailoring technology unique to the brand shines, emphasizes the waist by decorating the folds with pearl buttons and adding gatherings with stitches, expressing the world view. "I like the world view of the designer (Yanagawa) Arashi. The denim jacket is a casual item, but when you add a belt to it, Mr. Arashi! A denim shirt for ladies and a denim shirt jacket for men. It's the most attractive that Sullivan can choose both men and women."

What constitutes Kozue Akimoto
Thoughts for the creator
Even though she wears clothes in a variety of tastes, her appearance we see is always "like Kozue Akimoto." "I've been through a variety of clothing genres, even if I'm not conscious of it until now. Looking back, even though the genre is different, what I like fundamentally hasn't changed since ancient times. Even if you combine streets, modes, punks, and different genres, the base is solid, so will it look like me? I think. So, what is Akimoto care about when choosing clothes? I asked the question frankly. "I basically wear black clothes. In the last few years, I've been conscious of not only brands but also designers. Not only that I like design, but also that I want to wear clothes made by Arashi like Sullivan this time, I will talk directly when I go to the show, go to a meal, go to the office and go to play.…。 I'm only a fan, but I want to return my full power to those who like it and support it! I like love for fashion, love for brands, love for people, and relationships with heart as such people."
