Everlasting Sprout show put on a nice show as usual. This brand’s heavy, loose knitwear recalls kids’ romper suits, with details that remind you of your grandma’s doilies. The show was beautifully stages, with great hair and makeup and a runway made of cloth, with clothes hanging from a clothesline overhead.

The location for Mintdesigns yesterday was bad, but we would have to say Tiny Dinosaur was worse! Held in DEE’s Hall, somewhere in Minami-Aoyama, there were only 50 seats available to press. Many people who had no invitation had to wait, and in the they had to stand outside, catching a glimpse of models as they came out of the hall and went back to the dressing room.
