Chiharu and Marga :heart: . It's so nice to see them together.

Chiharu is so stunning in the Kenzo and Hermes shows.
I also love her look at Barbara Bui.

Tokyo’s Top Model Returns Home and Takes Us Shopping

If Tokyo Fashion Week was dominated by a single star, it would have to be Chiharu Okunugi. The model appeared front and center at all of the week’s key shows, from Hanae Mori to Mihara Yasuhiro. A Tokyo native, Okunugi began modeling back in 2011 with a turn for the legendary Yohji Yamamoto. In the near-half decade since, she has become one of the most visible Japanese models on the international scene, regularly appearing on the runways in New York and Paris. After working with power brands like Hermès, Balenciaga, and Kenzo this season, most would forgive Okunugi if she decided to forgo the 14-hour flight home in lieu of some R&R, but she felt that it was time to retrace her footsteps: “Walking Tokyo Fashion Week makes me remember my first steps into the world of fashion and my career,” says Okunugi.

The trip home also gave Okunugi a chance to reconnect with friends and to revisit some of her favorite local attractions, from an Izakaya bar to taking part in some of Tokyo’s famous shopping, like that found at Laila Vintage in the trendy Shibuya district. A fan of Prada and Christophe Lemaire, Okunugi searches for classic pieces among the racks, describing her personal look as minimalist. But that doesn’t mean that Okunugi doesn’t want to give some of the vibrant pieces she’s been wearing on the runway a try. “My style is simple. I always wear black, white, or navy—but recently I’ve wanted to put more color into my wardrobe.”

Tokyo itself is a constant source of sartorial inspiration, particularly due to its eclectic mix of streetwear looks. Though she’s used to the array of neighborhoods and their individual styles, Okunugi still finds herself impressed by the wealth of creative expression she’s able to see on a daily basis. “There are a lot of different styles here in Japan, from the traditional and classical ones to the more ‘fashion’ ones,” says Okunugi. “You have all the kawaii culture, the formal businessmen in suits—I would say that today’s Japanese style combines them all.” Modeling, at least, has given Okunugi a chance to try them all on for size. Though the week has come to a close, she’s more than ready for her next round on the runway: “[This season] it’s great being able to travel, seeing my friends and cities that I love—that is something that will never get old!”
