Fashion World Tokyo
2014, October 20-22, 2014
Fashion World Tokyo is one of the biggest
Fashion Trade Expo on earth. For wholesaler, importer, retailer, manufacturer,
boutique owner or any apparel addictive, Fashion World Tokyo is a wonder museum
for treasure hunt. Held in spring and autumn, in 2014, there are over 500
companies attending, from Taiwan to Portugal.
I start to prepare the articles, items, photos, texts and the paper works this mid-September at Helsinki studio; after nearly a hundred of emails, finally, on October 3rd expo staff confirm that our booth construction, electrical service, rental furniture and interpreter fully stand-by. At Tokyo Big Site, I work averagely almost 10 hours for 4 days, from the decoration, reception, packing-up, contacting and replying up-coming emails. It’s a challenging duty but still a perfect chance to get to know new clients and encounter the possibilities. The only problem is that I become thirsty and starving extremely easily after work, yes, all the time, straight to midnight.
EBiS Exhibition
After the temple trip, I go to Pro1 Fashion Trade Show with friends from Hong Kong. Held in EBiS 303, though only 31 exhibitors in total, still there all quite some young impressive designers full of creativities and passion. Though due to the no photo policy, I can show very a few glimpses of the show, still I recommend CHEEKLDN by Charlotte Yamada, Mink Pink from Australia, Primitive Action Shiroma and hactin from Tokyo.
I am very grateful for whom I met, where I have been, what I have taken responsibilities and eaten during these 10 days. To me, Tokyo trip is no doubt beautiful, eventful and inspirational.
Special Thanks: Team MH, Team MINGO, Iwasaki and those great people I meet during my Tokyo Trip October, 2014.
