I finally got the return call from the buyer of Takashimaya New York to view my “Almost All Year Round” fashion collection.

The experienced buyer, Justin, with her charming assistant buyer, Olivia joyously selected the finest pieces in my collection with quick decision. Then there came a friendly middle-aged woman, the director of the store, who gave another experienced comment…. “Beautiful collection with old fashioned tailoring; your clothes remind me of Jeffery Beene!”.

Hurray!!! Packed and jumped into the taxi with my always happy spirit!
