Mr. Nagao is attracting attention for his edgy style and appears in various fashion media. When I heard the secrets of dressing, I returned an unexpected answer saying, "Because I often move around at work, I emphasize ease of movement." It is only because of a refined sensitivity that allows you to penetrate your own worldview without being too strange. She spent a busy day as a director of the select shop "Sister" and asked her to go around the Shibuya PARCO building as a holiday feeling. What did you touch her heart with certain eyes?

It emphasizes not only design but also functionality. "A.P.C." that brings out the individuality of the wearer
The first place I visited was A.P.C., the first store in the Shibuya area. The interior of the store, which has a wide frontage and easy to enter, is a woody interior made of oak wood. It is warm and has a French chic esprit like a brand. "A.P.C." is popular among a wide range of generations, and Nagao is one of the fans. "I usually wear menswear here. In fact, the black knitwear I wore today is also true. It's very comfortable because it's both made and functional."

Theme kolor is “black”. Genderless jacket style
What caught Nagao's eye was a men's black work jacket. The white stitches make a contrast to vintage-like denim fabric. "I'm attracted to the design that incorporates military elements such as large pockets. The size of the XS is great.” Both the shoes and the bag showed off a uniform style with a core in black. At the store, collaboration sandals with the footwear brand "Suicoke" are also being developed. The lightweight thick bottom sole gives you a comfortable feel.
The charm of vintage denim that has been taken over.
A sustainable perspective is also a point.
The Shibuya PARCO store is also a target store for the Butler Program. If you bring your old Rohde Nimjeans from A.P.C., you can exchange them for a new one for half price only if they are judged to have good color discoloration and condition. The lining of the recovered jeans is marked with the initials of the previous owner and is sold again as "Butler Jeans". I would like to pay attention to the sustainable perspective that leads to the reduction of waste in addition to the unique charm of the expression created after wearing it for many years.

Discover new creations in a space where “eternal masterpieces” gather around the world
The next time I visited, "H.P. DECO Artistic Life" is an interior shop that Nagao loves. Creations from all over the world are lined up in the store with a sense of exoticity. Among them, the "JOHN DERIAN" plate with motifs from vintage picture books and magazines. Mr. Nagao stopped his foot cushion and mascot of the NY embroidery brand "CORAL & TUSK". The animal motif with a surreal touch is lovely. You will also be fascinated by the pure white pottery of "Astier de Villatte" from Paris. The design inspired by a 19th century vessel looks like an antique. There are also a variety of other items. You should be able to find an exciting gem.

The face of the dear man floats
A treasure trove of items that you want to present
"I often buy a friend's present here," says Nagao. One of them is a masterpiece of La Soufflerie, a glass workshop in Paris, and a flower vases with a face motif. Hand-blown glass, which is mainly recycled glass, does not have the same shape as one, and it is fun to choose. I asked Mr. Nagao, who likes to give gifts to people, how to select presents. “Don’t be easy anyway. I go to a distant place and think carefully about him and choose him.”

It's a unique personality that makes you smile unexpectedly. Popular blend teas can be tasted
Mr. Nagao was fascinated by the cat incense burner of "ASTIER DE VILLATTE". There is a humorous device that puts incense stick on the pedestal and exhales smoke from the mouth. "You don't have to scatter the ashes. I want my house!” 。 In addition, she who loves tea and buys blended tea from "BELLOCQ" from NY. Among the abundant flavors blended with organic tea leaves, we chose the No.12 "Le Amo" with a strong lemongrass scent. You can also taste it at the store, so be sure to taste it.

Finally, go to "OIL by Bijutsu Techo", which develops galleries, cafes, and merchandise sales. The works of contemporary artists are on display, and you can enjoy art together with Japanese tea using tea leaves from "EN TEA". What I ordered on this day was a refreshing "quick watering tea" with the sweetness of green tea firmly. A variety of art collections are also available in the store. You can also view the back number of the art notebook freely.
A place where you can shorten the distance from art.
Feel the air in the field with your skin.
Mr. Nagao has a deep knowledge of art as well as fashion and movies. How do you usually enjoy art? “I go to museums on holidays and watch the stage of classical ballet and contemporary dance. It is important not to be satisfied with books and videos, but to feel the atmosphere unique to the field. The OIL Bijutsu Techo is easy to enjoy art between shopping and shopping. It's a place that creates an opportunity to shorten the distance from art," he said with a smile.
