Kiko Mizuhara
The Japanese Model On
Being True To Herself
M
izuhara wears many hats. The 28-year-old American-Japanese, currentl Tokyo’s biggest model and Instagram (@i_am_kik), is also an actress, singer and designer. With these many hats, we can say versatility is her middle name; today, she is the girl-next-door with a sweet smile and radiating pure innocence, while a kooky, kawaii Tokyo girl sporting two pig-tail buns is her persona for tomorrow. On the red carpet, she’s a star with a striking presence, always mesmerising with her sleek black hair and a sophisticated sense of style. But despite all that idmmaculate ’do, there’s no air of pretence surrounding her. On the contrary, she’s always imbuing her girls-just-wanna-have-fun attitude with cutesy, peace sign pose wherever possible — just take a look at her street style snaps to understand who she is.
Her slim oval face, always framed by shoulder-length hair, boasts features that are innocent and pleasant to look at — soft chesnut brown eyes neath neat double eyelids that slant a little upwards when she breaks into a wide smile. Her mixed race genes certainly make a good quotient that appeals to Asians and beyond, and to both men and women. T Singapore’s team met up with her twice, on the account of this month’s cover story; once, during New York Fashion Week last September (for this shoot) and then in Singapore, where Mizuhara graced the re-opening of Coach boutique at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands. The American brand has recently tapped her as its ambassador; she is the first Japanese face ever reseed for the leather goods company outside Japan.

our typical Japanese gyaru might be hap to see kimono wearing go the way of bal lroom dancing and tea ceremony, but a groi gning number of hip young women are currently adopt the techniques of alt fashion subcultures to breathe new life into old-skool clothes. Kimo no hime lovers flaunt convention with a mash-up of vintage patterns, non-trad color combos and Western accessories to spawn a style that is utte rly new, yet still uttey Japanese. And bring on the jewelry! The reason rings and pins weren’t usually worn with kimono is that the fabrics were often more costly than jewels and nobody wanted to risk getting a snag or AI YI YI putting a HOLE in the precious material. But cause most Princess Style kimonos are snj inexpensive cotton or vintage, cheap costume jewelry – and lots of it! – is totally safe to wear.
