Sep 8, 2015

FACETASM and CITY COUNTRY CITY, a cafe and bar in Shimokitazawa owned by musician Keiichi Sogabe, are teaming up to launch a limited-time shop called "MUSIC & FASHION by FACETASM & CITY COUNTRY CITY" in the West Park on the third floor of the Isetan Shinjuku Main Building from September 16th to 22nd. During the event, a shop-in-shop recreating the atmosphere of Shimokitazawa's CITY COUNTRY CITY will appear inside the Isetan Shinjuku store, offering limited-edition items and records themed around music and fashion. Regarding this collaboration, FACETASM designer Hiromichi Ochiai commented, "Good music is essential for design." Furthermore, Keiichi Sogabe of CITY COUNTRY CITY created a new logo for the shop. A highlight of the collaboration is FACETASM's first remake items, made using vintage clothing selected by Hiromichi Ochiai. Additionally, vinyl records selected especially for the event by City Country City store manager Tatsuo Hirata, who is in charge of the music for the brand's shows, will also be on sale.

Tatsuo Hirata commented, "When selecting music for a show, I do so with the hope of inspiring everyone involved. Since the theme of this pop-up shop is fashion and music, I selected records with easy-to-understand, edgy covers and content, as well as the image of FACETASM and 'CITY COUNTRY CITY'."

Also, for two days only, on the 19th and 20th, City Country City's popular homemade apple cheesecake set will be available (free, first-come, first-served; reservations open at noon on September 9th at the Isetan Shinjuku store's main number: 03-3352-1111).
