THE LAUNCH OF THE FASHION POST

northernprojects — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 18:03:39 +0000

We are happy to announce the launch of the bilingual fashion and lifestyle journal, THE FASHION POST (TFP). TFP is a project born out of the desire to offer relevant and interesting fashion and lifestyle information for the everyday. We seek to do so by editing fashion and lifestyle-related information in Japan and abroad from a range of creative and business perspectives. We have made the website bilingual in order to actively provide useful information for both international and Japanese audiences, while also utilizing the fact that we are based in Tokyo, one of the most prominent fashion capitals in the world. As Asia is expected to become increasingly more important in a geopolitical sense, we intend to grow into a hub which is able to successfully connect creativity and business in fashion.

We are again translating for the next Cool Japan project called “Tokyo Spring“.
At the same time, we are translating for a new Japanese fashion magazine called “UNION”, which we think will be a really cool one. This publication will come out in March.

Hope we all have a fantastic 2012! We just translated a press release for MR. GENTLEMAN, a new brand designed by the Japanese design duo Takeshi Osumi and Yuichi Yoshii. The former is also the designer of PHENOMENON and the latter the owner of THE CONTEMPORARY FIX.

A must-see film if you work in fashion. Sadly, fashion lost its significance in the 1990′s.
