The fashion celebration "Met Gala" was held again this year. The dress code theme for this occasion was "The Garden of Time." It is based on the novel of the same name by J.G.

WEGO has relaunched its low-priced goods format “WEGO1.3.5…” with a major renovation of its store on Takeshita Street.

WEGO has renovated its store on Takeshita Street in Harajuku, Tokyo, turning it into a specialty shop for its low-priced goods format "WEGO1.3.5...". The company is enhancing its system to analyze trends in real-time based on business operations that analyze insights from consumers in their teens to early twenties.

Kyosuke Sonoda, President of WEGO, reiterated his focus on "WEGO1.3.5...", stating, "We want to increase the motivation of teenage customers to visit our store. We aim to respond promptly to trends and want our customers to feel that they can encounter something new whenever they come here."

"WEGO1.3.5..." started in 2017 as a business format dealing mainly with miscellaneous goods such as stationery, centered around three price points: 100 yen, 300 yen, and 500 yen.

The store has expanded its range of fashionable goods, such as sunglasses and bracelets, and smartphone keychains, and suggests combining them with some apparel. It zones into styles currently popular among teenagers, like "Balletcore," "Brocketcore," and "Street Gyaru," and presents total coordinated looks.

A highlight of the store is the DIY corner, which is popular among teenagers. Here, customers can create original bracelets and keychains by combining their favorite alphabets and symbols, or choose patches to apply on pouches and drawstring bags. The parts range from 100 to 500 yen.

Furthermore, in line with the current trend of "Oshi katsu," where fans create items related to their favorite characters or idols, there is also a photo spot for homemade plush toys, enhancing the "Nui katsu" experience where fans make their plush toys.

The model allows the bezel and band to be detached and the center case to be attached to a special holder, transforming it into a unique charm. The watch body and the holder adopt vibrant coloring inspired by the Y2K (Year 2000) fashion trends prevalent around the turn of the millennium. The holder is made of silicone, which can be customized with stickers or rhinestones. In terms of watch functions, pressing the light button in time mode triggers the display of random dot character animations on the LCD screen.

Casio plans to expand its offerings with the new "BABY-G＋PLUS" series, which includes the "BGD-10K," focusing on items that allow individual expression.

Introduced in 1994 as a sister brand to the shock-resistant watch "G-SHOCK," "BABY-G" has been widely favored by young women under the concept "Tough & Cute." In 2014, the brand revamped its concept to "Tough & Cool," targeting more mature women, and expanded its lineup with the "G-MS" series and the "G-SQUAD" series, which supports physical activities through smartphone integration.

Katsura's achievements were recognized with numerous awards, including a commendation from the Minister of Foreign Affairs in 1993, a commendation from the Commissioner of the Agency for Cultural Affairs in 2019, and in 2023, she received the highest honor for silk and textile contributors, the Medal of Honor.
