Back by popular demand for the fourth year in a row, Tokyo Girls Collection, one of Japan’s major international fashion events, will hold a fashion show in Kitakyushu on October 6. This will make Kitakyushu the first regional city to host the event for four consecutive years. Last year’s show attracted around 12,700 visitors from all over Japan. The economic ripple effect from money spent at eateries and other businesses combined with the impact of newspaper, magazine and TV advertising reached a total of ¥1.57 billion. Source: fiba.jp
