The theme of the latest issue is "What Fashion Can Do." Mitsukoshi Isetan's luxury catalogue "Excellent Woman"

Event Date:2020.10.14-10.27
Oct 14, 2020
A limited-time installation space showcasing the world of Isetan Mitsukoshi's luxury catalog, "Excellent Woman," will be available on the first floor of the Isetan Shinjuku Main Building from October 14th. "Excellent Woman," launched in 1996, is an original Mitsukoshi Isetan catalog showcasing the latest luxury items. In the past, the catalog has collaborated with numerous creators to fuse fashion and art.


The theme of the latest issue is "What Fashion Can Do." Fashion has given people confidence and courage, shaping various eras and historical moments. Wearing clothes is not only an important form of self-expression, but also plays a major role in stimulating lifestyles, society, and creative minds.

To express this idea, we have collaborated with Fukushi Rina, a model active both in Japan and overseas, Suzuki Chikashi, a photographer who has made a remarkable impact in fashion magazines both in Japan and overseas, and Yamamoto Shohei, one of today's most dynamic and up-and-coming painters, to express "what fashion can do."
