Essay2-03: ○●Secret of Kumamoto●○

Hello, everyone. Winter is coming! What kind of clothes will you get this winter? We find various trends in clothes every year, sweaters, one-piece dresses, skirts, coats, jackets and so on. Every year, we have a little different from that of the year before. That is to say, we meet different trends in clothes. Do you have a desire keep up with the fashion every year? Or do you want to lead the fashion for some kinds of clothes? In other hands, many of us must have experienced that clothes we bought have gone out of fashion soon. Needless to say, the things in fashion are not always good, though.

We are to focus on one of well kept secret of Kumamoto. I found a gossip about fashion in Kumamoto, so I would like to handle it in this essay. Once, I have heard that the fashion trends are started in Kumamoto, and clothing companies try to put their new clothing on sale in Kumamoto. Have you heard that clothings which become popular in Kumamoto will also become good sellers in Japan? I wanted to find out whether it is true or not. I had an idea about the measure for it, and I tried to search on the Internet. It was because I wanted to see people’s opinion. However, in fact, I could not find so much information, because there are few reasonable opinions. Some people say bad things and put abusive comments there about Kumamoto’s fashion.

To tell the truth, I don’t really know whether the gossip is true or not. Some people say Fukuoka is still more fashionable than Kumamoto. I thought it was also natural opinion, because Fukuoka is the center of various things, markets, traffic, and economy. Besides, it is bigger than Kumamoto and has more people. In other hands, some people have the opinion that people in Kumamoto understand their own personality and choose clothes which really suit them. Other people say there is no time difference in fashion between Tokyo (the capital of Japan) and Kumamoto.

I think it is true that people in Kumamoto have an interest in fashion as well as those in other cities in Japan. Of course, that depends on each person eventually. However, many of my friends seem to have a great interest in fashion trends. It is widely said that the basic nature of people in Kumamoto is newfangled, that is, tend to prefer new things. (Please check out the link below.) As a conclusion, however, it depends on each person. So many men, so many minds(十人十色).
