Selecting clothes I’ve worn, including vintage ones

Takano: I would like to hear about the concept behind your vintage clothing store selections.

Shogo: I wonder what it is. …… I collect a wide range of clothes, including American casual, and recently, tech-inspired, 2000’s clothes at Y2K. I put in a lot of clothes I’ve worn, including vintage.

Celeina: Do you do the purchasing yourself?

Shogo: I do it with a lot of enthusiasm (laughs).

Takano: From where do you buy?

Shogo: It’s a trade secret (laughs).

Celeina: I see (laughs). (laughs) What do you think of the store’s recent sales?

Shogo: Well, ……. I feel that clothes from the 2000s are back in fashion again. ……

Takano: Yes, they are. Also, Shogo, if you have any styling that you personally think is in style, please let us know.

Shogo: Today, the clothes I’m wearing are four dogs. ……

Takano: Four dogs on a T-shirt.

Celeina: The dogs’ names are on it, too.

Shogo: It’s vintage clothing, so I guess the lineup is probably the four dogs owned by the person who wore it (laughs).

Takano: (laughs). I like the oversized look of this white T (shirt).

Shogo: It’s a 3XL.

Celeina: There is a movement to get rid of oversized shirts, but do you still want to wear oversized shirts?

Shogo: Yes, totally. But in my case, I wear from S to 3XL! It’s like that.

Celeina: It depends on how I feel on any given day.

Takano: That’s good. We’d like to hear more, but let’s interrupt for a song: Shogo-san asked us to choose a song we would all like to listen to on the radio at this time.

Shogo: “haii” by Domico.

Takano: Why did you choose this song?

Shogo: I was told that it was a song that goes well with the evening, so I chose it.
