Akira Akimoto is active not only in Japan but also as a representative model in Asia, including overseas shows, magazines, and advertisements. I was asked to talk about her unique fashion that crosses genres and wears a variety of clothes while visiting the shops of Shibuya PARCO. This time, we went to that shop located right next to the entrance of Koen-dori St. on the 1st floor.

Shibuya Koen-dori St. extends from the scramble intersection to Yoyogi Park. This street, which is the center of Shibuya's fashion and culture, can be said to be the main street for walking to Shibuya PARCO. When you enter the entrance on the 1st floor facing Shibuya Koen-dori St., you will immediately jump into your eyes. "COMME des GARÇONS GIRL"'s first solo store.

Even those who are passionate fans of the brand,
For those who like it.
The COMME des GARÇONS GIRL, which was previously handled at stores of "COMME des GARÇONS", was launched by designer Rei Kawakubo in the 2015 SS season. Since it is a long-awaited stand-alone store for the brand, and at the same time, it is highly supported by young people, so we decided to set up a shop in Shibuya PARCO because we hope that young people coming and going to Shibuya will like fashion in the wake of this store.

Take a walk in a white cloud
The ultimate shopping experience with dreams
"The world view! The ceiling is cute! "Akimoto whispered unintentionally at the same time as entering the store. The white-based interior is shaped like a cloud when you look up, giving you a dreamy feeling as if you have stepped into a special place. COMME des GARÇONS GIRL's specialty school taste and girly outfit Akimoto's footsteps seem to be lighthearted. “I love the uniforms like today. I like wearing sneakers or wearing Garson rather than images without being bound by rules. Perfect for yourself who enjoys fashion regardless of genre!" 。

You can only buy it here,
Special collaboration items
The first thing to note at the shop is collaboration items between their own brands such as "CDG" and "PLAY COMME des GARÇONS", which are limited items that can only be purchased at Shibuya PARCO. In addition, there will be collaboration items with fans' coveted cooperation tags such as "Lewis Leathers" and "Disney".

It will make you feel better,
Full of accessories and bags
The aim is small items that are easy to pick up even among limited items. Akimoto, who usually only black items, seems to be worried about the white enamel bag he first picked up. "If you go to the store in this way, it's also nice to be able to meet items that you usually don't choose. What I think you get from working as a model is to wear clothes of various tastes. When you work, it is fun to know yourself again, such as when it suits you or does not suit you."

"Comme des Garchons" Clothes
Mr. Akimoto, who was unable to participate this season, but has been one of his lifestyle habits to go to Paris Collection for the past seven years. "There may be a flashy impression in the world, but there are surprisingly many items that are easy to use, so we collect them little by little. When I go to Paris, I often choose hard items, but what costume does the top come this time? And I'm very happy that those who like fashion are looking forward to it. The COMME des GARÇONS GIRL I wore today is a standard item that can be used for a long time, so I would like to collect it little by little."
