Party Baby - The Story of Kumamiki's Kawaii Harajuku Fashion Brand

[@paulinasd25]

To grow up it's not an easy thing.. people never understand that being mature doesn't mean that you can't listen some kinds of music, that you can't watch cartoons or play videogames or maybe dress in ways they couldn't ever do.. Yeah, sometimes it becomes harder to swim against the current, it's sad that even close people can't understand and accept it.. in those moments we need something like this

[@SanSxmply]

I agree. Thank you for writing this, putting time and effort into sharing your opinion for people to endure! Have a blessing day and take amazing care.

[@IchigoPinkuStar]

This video always put me in a good mood :3 She is really wise, and her words are encouraging :)

[@arzunarmanli6373]

p lleke m jiik,

[@Magicallolitamomo]

i'm working on starting up my own fashion brand and whenever i feel discouraged i watch this and i get inspired and get even the tiniest bit of courage that maybe my dream is possible thank you Tokyo Fashion and Kumamiki i truly appreciate this video

[@MySweetChxnnel]

Same here.

[@TamaraAnja]

And now ?

[@ruby4751]

Me too! I'm starting my own japanese fashion brand. What's the name of yours?

[@triplehearts914]

watched this when i was young!! 10 years later, I still love fashion like this.

[@woolfulrebellion]

Her voice is so soothing and her demeanor so pleasant, I need to train myself to speak like that.

[@OR0R0]

the dream you must live. may she go far

[@magicmissAi]

This video made me cry ;;

[@taylor7666]

This is so inspiring, im actually crying

[@CandySphynx]

I'm trying real hard not to cry right now, this is so inspiring. She is so honest, true to herself, and passionate, it's a wonderful example. She's also a fantastic designer, a great seamstress, and has a dedication that moves people forward. Wonderful. Thank you for sharing this.

[@kklollypop]

I love how fashion isn't as restrictive for youths as it is in the West. I don't mean by being provocative, but it seems that being an individual and embracing new styles is concept more invited there than it is here. It's really refreshing.

[@threepotatofriends3952]

Her voice is so relaxing

[@TheStitchess]

Easily one of my favorite fashion brand interviews

[@ficsci]

it's so calming to see that there are people like her in this world

[@JesseLogister]

Love the video and her designs and style. She seems such a sweet person as well.

[@megan1368]

I love her hair!

[@st4erry909]

Reminds me of miwako !

[@justcomments]

Wow. that was really touching ; ; and also hits home just how amazing Sebastian Masuda-san is... I remember several years ago he and his models came to represent 6% Doki Doki at a small cultural festival in London, and now Kawaii-Style is just so... big! Not only Kawaii-Style, but I feel like a lot more people are happily dressing the way that makes them more comfortable.

[@CatloafCreative]

I’ve enjoyed following Kumamiki’s work for over a year now, I love her even more after getting a peak into her process. You are doing great work by documenting this TF!

[@fashionistaawannabe]

please please do more videos like this!!it's just sooo inspiring and watching the "behind the scenes"on how designers work their MAGIC is just A W E S O M E

[@martinaiacoviello2816]

i love her spirit and her bravery...i really hope she'll be a famous designer! i love the red dress, her blouse and the colorful skirt!

[@MeryChigire9Guns]

Her words makes me cry. I'm jealous of her, but it's a positive thought, she got her dream and I wish I can get mine≧﹏≦

[@AikofromHalbwizzen]

She is very pretty. And her style is so inspiring! It is wonderful!

[@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293]

She looks fantastic and I love her hair colour scheme too-- very early 1970s with that warm pink and orange sherbet. I'd guess it would go with most clothing colours too, very thoughtful. I'd love to view her entire archive and present creations, gorgeous.

[@owlislike]

Why do I even worry about what people think anymore? This lady is so inspiring..good luck to her and her brand!

[@StefanieRoyMusic]

Wow. WOW. What an inspiring, intelligent and amazingly creative girl. More people need to be like her.

[@TalentsUseless]

i wish i studied fashion...even though im studying a course now i hope to go back to uni to really do what i want

[@spunkykyoko]

I love her clothes!!! Especially the dress with the green checkered sides!!

[@EcstaticElf]

I always watch this video when I'm in a creativity slump. It's such an inspiring story.

[@maydee3000]

[@jo2uke]

Such an inspiration. Always wanted to do design/fashion but never really had that determination! Love herr

[@SwanPrncss]

What happened to Party Baby? Did she drop her fashion label or something? Or did she change the name to Pachi Pachi Factory? Party Baby's Japanese site is down as well as their Facebook.

[@chris9879]

I think Party Baby became Pachi Factory... Kumamiki stated Pachi Factory in her twitter bio

[@NightShadeDess]

I thought this was really inspiring because I live in the US and the style is very different. I like being cute but stand out, I wish I could learn to make cloths like she does and be able to make clothes for others that like cute things as well.

cute!!! kawaii~

[@PommeVanille]

Thank you Kuma ♡

[@manita_]

such a sweet video! Kumamiki is adorable! :3

[@joonjoon7363]

I always watch this video when fashion school stresses the hell out of me and makes me genuinely unhappy. My college focuses on functional but fashionable design, it's kinda hard for me since they don't really appreciate Tokyo fashion. I probably won't amount to anything in my home country. But is it even possible to get anywhere in Japan fashion-wise? I feel easily discouraged, because they have their Bunka fashion school, and every Designer who's acknowledged by streetstyle icons seems to have graduated from Bunka. Do I even have a chance? :(

[@ruby4751]

Yes you do! Plenty of people become successful designers without even having gone to college!

[@Mysterysomething]

being her model is so lucky~~

[@isidoracheerful]

Is so cute this clothes!

[@marichan5114]

Wow, I got so inspired by this video! I, who want to have a carrier as a fashion designer, and clothing maker. She's my new IDOL ^w^

[@mirandawhitehead6932]

i love her outfit and would wear it in america too

[@momoiropopstar]

[@sayurisuzuki9074]

[@caitlinsuarezartistry]

Beautiful!

[@mgasa9401]

[@ckayla78]

I'm looking forward to collaborating with her one day when I start my own clothing brand.

[@ValentinaNicoletta]

[@blehblab8986]

i love her cookie-like duck earings!!!!

[@davidwolstenholme1136]

[@jenniferrulesu123]
