Fashion is "a magic item to produce a different self." Her unique worldview continues to spread infinitely.
Even as an eyelash designer she is by nature a creator.
At times in splendid doll fashion, at times in a futuristic cyber-style, and even at times in things like voluptuous goth-kei, VIVI is always enveloped in a comfortably intoxicating fantastic outfit.
While she usually works in a Harajuku used-clothes store, she also carries the persona of an eyelash designer. In the beginning it was only things like accessories and clothes, but about a year and a half ago she began to take commissions to produce false eyelashes from the shop where she placed her creations. "I finish my job at the used clothes store and start work on the eyelashes, and before I notice it's been all night! (laughs). Everyday is tough, but because I have a good time I can bear it."

Doll and Cyber, Goth-kei….The unique sensibility to create fantastic works.
Having advanced her fashion system in both high school and vocational school, she made many of the clothes and accessories that she wore by herself. It is said that her unique sensibility is based on the influence of her stylish mother and her yearning to be a drag queen.
"Since elementary school I wore the same Mode-kei fashions as my mother, with many black clothes. However, since moving to Tokyo to attend vocational school and starting to live by myself I've started to wear primary colors like reds, yellows and shocking pink, I guess I've become a lot more colorful."
One of her hobbies is photography clubs for various costumes. She is particular about creating the situation thoroughly, for example going so far as to create the void of space with an aluminum backdrop for Goth-Cyber fashion.
"I'm also interested in Ninjas and the Spacey look. I'd like to enjoy various fashions, like wearing a cat suit."

Aiming to be a performer singing and dancing on the stage of a club abroad
VIVI wanted to be a singer when she was in elementary school. She took vocal lessons and there was a period where she practiced dance.
When she was in junior high, taking inspiration from the comic "Paradise Kiss", she decided to go to fashion school in Tokyo to become a clothing designer.
Now that she's grown up, her dream is to go abroad as a performer and sing and dance at a club!!
Actually, for the last two years VIVI has also been performing at a club as a dancer and dances ecstatically to the music of the DJ.
Naturally, she says she would like to continue making clothes, accessories and eyelashes.
"I gave up when I was in high school, but by things like making clothes with transparent fabrics, I want to give shape to things that I would like to wear myself."
Her overflowing imagination and vitality have no limits.
