The Shiseido Beauty Creation Center has been supporting the hair and makeup for "Fashion Cantata from KYOTO" since 2010. This fashion event, held in Kyoto, aims to promote the elegant and refined, traditional culture surrounding Japanese kimonos, which Kyoto is proudly home to, while blending it with modern Western fashion and artistic culture. The event seeks to share this unique fusion with the world. This year, it was held on June 14, 2025, at the Kyoto Theater, and we participated once again.
