This spring, the two best-known fashion events in Tokyo are holding a two-day event on a conjoint basis. Enlisting the slogan “Sparkling girls,” new fashion styles will be presented with a myriad of ‘sparkling’ limelight and with components of next season’s sparkling look. This slogan also highlights girls’ power to ‘sparkle’ despite recent economic turmoil. Additionally, we will incorporate charity auctions and live performances by a top artist. Moreover, this year, TGC launches a new effort to contribute to local industry in response to the request of the Cabinet Office to revitalize local industries in Japan. For this, TGC and the eyewear industry of Sabae City, Fukui Prefecture, are introducing eyewear and sunglasses at a special show, collaborating with popular apparel brands. All of these features will help towards making a glamorous event.
