”東京カワイイTV”が“カワイイ・インターナショナル”英語国際版に!この私がホストをつとめます!!19日放送
Sorry about all of the self-promotion here lately! It’s all coming out at once….to get to the point, the most popular fashion TV show in Japan, “TOKYO KAWAII TV” is getting an international version and ***I`m hosting the inaugural episode***!
This English-language version is called “KAWAII International” and it’s exactly what you would expect; a 60-minute look at Japan’s most notorious subcultures of fashion as viewed from an international perspective.
The first episode covers hair trends in Tokyo (including an appearance by hairstylist friend and Tokyo fashion icon Yuya Nara), and hats as seen in Harajuku, Shibuya, and Akihabara (!) and then a deep look at lolita fashion with a special appearance by lolita queen Misako Aoki.
最近、自分に関する話題の告知が続いてしまってごめんなさい!で
この私がホストとして参加しています!
英語で収録されたこの番組は、カワイイインターナショナルという
This may come as a surprise to some; after all, high-end fashion (which I love) and street fashion (which I love) and subcultures (which I am fascinated by) have never really mixed well until recently. Thank god for evolution of style! I personally have always been fascinated by subcultures…I was a skater, then a b-girl in Junior-High and High School (can’t believe I admitted that. Yes, corn rows and everything). In Japan, I wanted to learn about the goth loli culture and even attended a few events. But I never had the clothes quite right (haha).
I have never been able to delve so deeply into the subcultures here because I felt that if I weren’t participating in that subculture itself, I would feel like I was just watching….like a leery, dirty old man or something. Participation really is key to understanding. So hosting this show is such an eye-opener for me and I had so much fun learning.
今までこういった、(私の大好きな)ハイファッションと、(これ
このゴスロリの例じゃないけど、私はこの東京が育んだサブカルチ
There’s even a segment where lolita Misako shows how she puts on makeup and there are some great tricks in there…. all of the best tricks I learned I picked up when I followed Koakuma Ageha model Satomin for a day, for real (it’s a secret)!!
We also have Harajuku pastel punk, mori girl (Grimoire), Shibuya gyaru and Akiba costume players as guests on the show. Sometimes, when it comes to avant garde high-end fashion and it’s counterpart like costume play or goth-lolita etc., the only thing that separates them is a digit or two on the price tag….#truth.
他には、ミサコさんが伝授する、ロリータメイクのHow to講座なんてのもあった。へぇ、あのメイクにはこういうトリックが隠されていたのね、なん
他に、この番組に色を添えたゲストは、原宿の森ガールの発祥とも
If you’re interested, please watch it starting this Sunday on NHK World or on *the internet* (for freeeee!). See the schedule and links below.
I haven’t seen the final product yet, but I`m hosting with the awesome multitalented model Yohko Melody and since we are friends we had tons of fun doing it so I hope it shows through…and leads to subsequent MC-ing gigs! Heh. Please check it out!!!
PS: I hear that Kyari Pamyu Pamyu’s music video art director Sebastian Masuda made the opening credits. Gonna be trippy cool for sure!

サンキュー!!!
I caught the inaugural program by chance here in Africa! I am obsessed with Japanese fashion and your fashion proggrams on NHK always fill that obsession. The patterned tights you wore were amazing and so was your hat! It reminded me of the Philip Tracy collection.
I`m so glad to hear you could catch it!! The tights are by Choco Moo at AvantGarde http://www.tokyofashiondiaries.com/archives/9896 and the hat is by Nobuki Hizume! ♥
