    โ€”

    Get your fashion on with this month’s edition of Martin Webb’s “Style Wise” column for THE JAPAN TIMES.

    I mentioned the Uniqlo “Designers Invitation Project” the other day in my “An Afternoon in Ikebukuro” post, and pictured above is the tag that comes with the clothes in the collection.
