Fukuoka City\u2019s fashion industry is in the spotlight from March 8 ~ 23. <\/em>
\nKyushu\u2019s biggest annual fashion event takes place in Fukuoka City this March, showcasing the local fashion scene with great lineup of events, fashion shows, and sales. The concept behind the event is to attract stylish visitors from both Kyushu and abroad, creating a buzz around Fukuoka\u2019s fashion. This year\u2019s motto is \u201cPlay! FUKU-OKA!\u201d. A large selection of shops in Hakata, Tenjin, Daimyo, Yakuin and Imaizumi hold special sales and events during F.W.F, turning Fukuoka City into a massive playground for fashion. The 2014 festival mascot is Japan\u2019s beloved dress-up doll \u201cLicca-chan\u201d (similar in popularity to USA\u2019s Barbie) known as the fashion\u2019s biggest fan in Japan! The main event, FACo (Fukuoka Asia Collection) is the grand finale to Fashion Week Fukuoka on March 23. There are plenty of events and bargain sales to delight in across March, and Fukuoka Now staff have selected a few of the highlights below.<\/p>\n
