I love this jacket designed by Yoshiyuki Ogata, who designed both Kurara and Riyo’s national costumes. Riyo bought it yesterday at his shop in Harajuku, after finishing the 3rd fitting for her costume. Check his designs at www.yoshiyuki.jp

We just finished the last fitting tonight. The costume will be ready tomorrow!!!

I love her designs, she is incredibly talented. Her personality shows so much throughout her clothes, they are feminine-but-vibrant, very stylish and unique. She also has a big heart because she supported us with a fashion show to raise money for breast cancer awareness last October at the Grand Hyatt.
