"#11 At the end of the year."

It's starting to feel like the end of the year, with a somewhat hectic atmosphere in the city.
How are you all doing?
This is Harada from meanswhile.

The year 2025 is finally coming to an end.
What kind of year has this year been for you?

When I look back on myself, this year was a year in which the environment changed dramatically and I was blessed with many connections.
25AW/26SS exhibition and store relocation.
It wasn't always easy, but I was able to overcome it with the support of many people.
I think it was a year that I can say was truly fulfilling.

The one that left a particularly strong impression on me was the one held in Ariake in February.
"meanswhile 2025 Autumn/Winter Runway Show"

I was not able to watch the show itself as I was working behind the scenes on the day.
At the end of the show, after designer Fujisaki's greetings, I remember feeling relieved and warmed by the feeling of being able to spend this time with the people who had been involved in the show in the backyard.

Thank you very much to everyone who came to see us under the cold sky.
Some people actually used the novelty emergency sheets that we handed out.
The way it reflected light was also impressive.

It's been a little over a month since we moved our store from Komazawa to Shibuya.
