H&M FLAG-STORE OPENING IN SHIBUYA, TOKYO
September.19,2009
The company calls the new Harajuku location the “Ice Cubes Building” and the upper floors look like ice cubes stacked on top of each other.
Shibuya district transformed with the opening of a new H&M store in time for ‘Silver-week’ on September 19th. The Japan flag-ship is a huge 4 floor mega-store which is sure to bring more of H&M’s product lines to Tokyo.
Expect HUGE queues for the next month then more in November when Jimmy Choo’s collection for H&M is launched. cannot wait!
Actually I chose my outfit for the opening with a touch of Fergie and the Black Eye Peas as they were to perform at the party. adidas boxing pants and jacket, with H&M necklaces and rings and Jimmy Choo’s gold stilettos and a fluo-pink bag. I think I never took so many pictures with fans in my life, it was amazing and I am really touched with the sweet words that each of the girls (and even guys) were giving me. THANK YOU!
“My girls” Mai the a top-blogger in Japan and the sweetest little angel who flies from parties to parties to deliver her message of love & Rei Hamada my beautiful 1st runner-up in 2007.
Many past finalists came, almost 10 of them from the past years, we were hugging and so happy to see each others again. I love my baby girls. Even thought they are adults, I always see them as my babies… among them Rei Hamada, Meri, Anna Sado, Yuka Hamada, Sayo, Reiko Iida, Miyako Miyazaki, Yuko Ishizawa and Maiko whom is getting married soon.
We ended up at Le Baron afterward with my friend Tina and other friends, the Black Eye Peas were there as well relaxing and enjoying the evening, they also DJed for a while. It was quite private and only few people were there which made it comfortable to dance.
We loved their performance inside the H&M shop, they really are something! (video above of the fans dancing while the Black Eye Peas are playing).
Hiroko and Emiri were ther as well and were a standout in the night. They are sooooo beautiful!
The next day first opening for its customers….
