Karin Kojima, who is the captain of NMB48, a popular idol group based in Namba, Osaka, cruises through Shinsaibashi PARCO. While visiting apparel, household goods, and beauty stores, we asked about your own fashion and skin care commitments. We are also listening to stories about costumes ahead of "NMB48 Costume Exhibition 13 Years of Love Nanba from Costume" to be held in PARCO GALLERY on the 14th floor from January 2nd (Tue). Delivering the charm of Kojirin, which combines beauty and core strength!

Next, we will go to the Rain Goods brand "Wpc.TM", which makes daily outings more enjoyable. Opened as a direct management store that is rare in Japan, there are also limited items that can not be easily seen here. An umbrella and other items are lined up, and just looking at a cute design makes your heart slump.

A masterpiece Umbrella that reproduces the works of famous painters such as Van Gogh's sunflowers, Monet's water lilies, and Klimt's flower garden ¥3,080

Under the theme of "Special Flower Art Exhibition held only on rainy days", an impactful design incorporating masterpieces of masters known to everyone. The sunflower drawn with a powerful touch matches her smile full of power. “If you have this, you will be excited for the rainy day. “I wanted to go to the museum,” Mr. Kojirin.

A refreshing green folding umbrella with "like spring roll wrapped in rice paper" ¥3,080 picked up.
Collaboration with cat photographer Masayuki Oki. Folding umbrellas with cute meat balls ¥3,630 each. "Nyanyan" is a meat ball pose for kojirin-san♡

―What umbrella do you always use?

 

Kojima: "I use a clear vinyl umbrella that is sold at a convenience store. I'm very good at rain, and if the weather is bad, I get up in the morning and feel down. But today I tried various things, and I was surprised that just holding a cute umbrella would increase the tension. I also want to use my favorite umbrella to be happy on rainy days. I want to come back slowly.”

 

Piping Shiny Umbrella wrapped in romantic shine ¥3,080. I enjoy the expression that changes depending on how the light hits.
