"Since I usually wear all-black outfits, I was drawn to the clean, simple, and sophisticated design. I love how timeless it is—it feels like something I can keep wearing for years without ever getting tired of it (YU)"

"What I love about this piece is that it has a beautiful silhouette and is comfortable to wear, yet it doesn't look too put-together. Even when paired with an all-black outfit, it doesn't feel too heavy and gives just the right amount of a relaxed vibe. (YU)"
A source of culture.
What is your impression of MIYASHITA PARK?
It’s a place in Tokyo that truly captures the essence of the city. It’s not just another shopping mall; you can feel the atmosphere where fashion, culture, and music naturally come together. I also love how it subtly showcases the sophisticated side of Tokyo.
What do you often go there for?
I tend to just drop by on a whim rather than for any specific reason. It’s a place where I make new discoveries just by walking around, and it naturally lifts my spirits.
Are there any events that have caught your attention recently?
The rooftop lawn is such an open and pleasant space that I hope we can hold a live concert there someday.
