LEFT: “I think accessories made from light materials like chiffon but with a South Asian feel will be popular this spring.”RIGHT: “I want to mark the start of spring by getting a really short haircut—I think a lot of girls will be doing that.”

LEFT: “I’ll go shopping in Harajuku to look for a nice ankle-length skirt.”RIGHT: “I want to go shopping in Koenji to find a unique pair of overalls with a printed pattern.”
