What is the Tokyo Girls Collection?

Since starting in August 2005, under the banner "Taking Japanese Girls Culture to the Rest of the World," this massive fashion festival has been held twice a year. Around 100 popular, distinctive Japanese models have appeared at the event, and starting with a fashion show that displays Japanese "real clothes," there is a huge range of attractions inside that are unique to TGC, such as live music from top artists, a special stage featuring some of the most in-demand guests, as well as booths where visitors can "touch and try" different items that are currently popular. The show has also garnered attention both domestically and from abroad, as it also operates as an E-commerce event, giving guests the chance to buy the clothes that the models are wearing on their mobile devices!

About the "Chihou Sousei Project (Regional Generation Project)?"

As part of the "Regional Industry Revitalization Project (predecessor)," the TGC has been setting up promotion booths and holding stage presentations at venues, as well as hosting TGC events in Nagoya, Okinawa, and Fukushima in order to stimulate local industry through out Japan since the "Naikakukanbou Chiiki no Genki Saisei Jigyou - Fukui ken Sabae shi Megane (Cabinet Secretariat: Revitalization of Local Industry - Fukui Prefecture, Sabae City's Glasses)" in March 2009.

From now, under the name "TGC," collaborations with cities throughout the country are being pursued and developed, aiming to stimulate the economies of local regions. Whilst bringing "the latest from Tokyo" to girls who cannot make it to the Tokyo Girls Collection, TGC will spread the charming allure of local regions and areas.
