Q: What made you to be hooked on "fashion"?
Nothing special...If I had to pick one, I would say that I was forced to choose my own outfit for my elementary school graduation.
My parents helped me to choose it, but in the end I was wearing a half-zip sweatshirt, jeans that were just the right size, and work boots. It was too casual and I was a bit out of place, but I remember it was fun. Maybe that's when my obsession with my outfit slowly came up.

Q: What does fashion mean to you?
It's a kind of faith rather than just an obsession.

Q: Have you started something new during the pandemic?
I started to watch YouTube.

Q: What is your favorite YouTube channel?
【公式】養老孟子 (Official YouTube Channel of Takeshi Yoro) 

Q: What are three necessities?

1.Hat
I asked my friend NOZOMI KUROKAWA to make this custom-made hat. The lining is made of a tie that was worn my grandfather, and is a highly cherished item.

2. Glasses
I always wear glasses, but these are my latest favorites.

3. Accessories
They are not necessarily for everyone. So to speak, unnecessary things. I think fashion can be like that. However, there is a sense of satisfaction that can only be obtained by paying attention to even unnecessary things with our own aesthetic. Don't underestimate unnecessary things. haha.

Q: Could you tell us a bit about KUON items you wear?
The texture of the fabric and the balance between length and hem width are the best. Relaxed, but not carefree. Generous, but not too loose. The pants reminds me of swordsmen in history.

Q: Anything you would like to share with us?
Check out the special project with KUON and ANEI!
