Tokyo Girls Collection
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tokyo Girls Collection (東京ガールズコレクション?), sometimes abbreviated as TGC, is a twice-yearly fashion festival launched in 2005. The fashion event showcases the latest fashionable streetwear by domestic brands, and are modeled by popular models from various Japanese fashion magazines. The event is open not only to buyers and journalists, but also to the general public and incorporates live concerts by well-known artists, as well as charity auctions.[1] The event, held by girlswalker.com, a popular mobile web portal, is also broadcasted live on cell phones and the internet, and the products donned by the models are made available for purchase on the spot.[2]
