・〈City Fashion Show Details〉

Marunouchi Area <br />Marunouchi is a vibrant Japanese terminal. With the theme of diversity, this show represents a fashion city that is open to everyone. The runway will be decorated in collaboration with Heralbony, an organization that promotes works by artists with intellectual disabilities, and a variety of models, including people with disabilities and LGBTQ people, will appear in the show.

Name: WORLD CROSSING FASHION SHOW
Date and time: 11/3 (Friday/Holiday)
Venue: Marunouchi Nakadori

Comment from Takaya Matsuda, CEO of Heralbony Co., Ltd. <br />The people behind Heralbony's business are writers with disabilities.
What is important here is not that we are "dependent" but that we are actively "dependent."
A world in which the traditional support structure has been reversed will challenge capitalism, which is based on the assumption that people are able-bodied.
We believe that a fashion show in which artists with disabilities and models with disabilities are active in a normal way will lead to the creation of a society and culture that affirms “the way things are'' rather than a society that affirms the “normal''.

Heralbony Co., Ltd. Artist Ikumi Comments <br />I'm nervous but happy.

And it is the power of fashion that creates the "color" of each city.
Tokyo is the only city in the world where the colors change so much from city to city. Among them, I will be participating in a SHOW in Ginza with the theme of "tradition".
I was born and raised in Tokyo, and Ginza is my dream city.
Kabuki, Mobomoga, Ginbura… We connect tradition and the present through fashion.
