Midori Kobayashi



A Japanese fashion journalist, stylist and illustrator.

She died last April, and i think i want to talk about her here. I think none of you reading my blogg knows who she is?

Well this lady LOVED fashion, It’s VERY rare that an editor goes to EVERY SINGLE SHOW during fashion week, she was one of the few who did, Few, has this kind of passion and urge to stand behind both big and small designers.

Early on she recognized the talent of Alexander McQueen, Agnes B, Raf Simmons and did too introduce them to the Japanese market.

A self confessed genius: ” ...because I'm a genius, I can do things that other people can't do, so I don't need to be able to do what others can”

''Your were the first. You were the best. You were the most passionate.' - Raf Simons
