Whether it's fashion, music, or sports, there is a style that only each person can express in any genre. "Style is Everything." That's right, someone once said that style is everything. "Style Resume" is a series of interviews with adults who, as the name suggests, have style. Updated every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, the 12th installment traces the life of Shimazu Yoshiyuki, who works as a stylist and creative director.

05. I decided to go to the US for the first time, thinking, "I won't know until I go."
I first went to the US in 1974, my first year of high school. Going back a little, I started reading magazines like Men's Club in junior high school and was what you'd call an Ivy League kid. It was around the end of the VAN heyday. However, I had seen the Beatles and other film concerts, and I'd seen Kazuhiko Kato (deceased), of the Folk Crusaders, wearing Union Jack jackets and chalk-striped suits in magazines, and I had a longing for London-inspired clothing. My older brother was in a band, so he dressed in European style at the time, and I used to borrow his clothes when I performed with my own band. So I was interested in both America, where you see real everyday clothes, and Britain, where you see extraordinary clothing that reflects the music. The only thing I didn't like was London boots (laughs).
