Comme des Gar?ons
Comme des Gar?ons, which means "like boys" in French, is a Japanese fashion brand founded by designer Rei Kawakubo in 1969. The brand is known for its avant-garde and unconventional designs that often challenge the traditional ideas of fashion. The brand has gained a global following and has collaborated with numerous brands and designers, including Nike, Converse, and Supreme.
Comme des Gar?ons has been a key player in the Japanese fashion industry, and its impact can be seen in the work of many younger Japanese designers. The brand has also been recognized for its contributions to fashion, with Kawakubo receiving a lifetime achievement award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America in 2012.
Windows Phone in Japan
In Japan, Windows Phone has struggled to gain a significant market share compared to its competitors, Android and iOS. This is due in part to the fact that many popular Japanese apps are not available on the Windows Phone platform. Additionally, Japanese consumers tend to prefer phones with larger screens, which the Windows Phone does not offer.
Despite its struggles, some Japanese consumers have found the Windows Phone to be a reliable and efficient alternative to other mobile operating systems. The interface is user-friendly and the integration with Microsoft Office makes it a popular choice for business professionals.
Cosme大赏美白
Cosme大赏 is a yearly beauty award in Japan that recognizes the best beauty products in various categories. One of the most popular categories is "Whitening," which recognizes products that help brighten and even out skin tone.
Many Japanese consumers are particularly concerned with having fair and clear skin, and the Whitening category is highly competitive. Some of the most popular products in this category include Kose Medicated Sekkisei Lotion and SK-II Facial Treatment Essence.
It is important to note, however, that the idea of skin whitening can be controversial, as it is sometimes associated with a preference for lighter skin tones and a desire to conform to Western beauty standards. Some consumers have criticized the emphasis on skin whitening in the Japanese beauty industry and have called for more diversity in beauty standards.
