This was the first fashion show ever to be held at the State Guest House.

Among the most impressive dresses were such inspired by the works on ukiyoe master Katsushika Hokusai featuring Mt Fuji, sumo and courtesan motifs from "Hokusai Manga" and more.

Yumi is foreword thinking in her designs and is sure to appeal to the younger generation and cause the older more traditional Japanese to cringe at her wonderful and colorful designs however, that said her international following is undoubtly jumping with joy at her new offerings as I. Good Luck Yumi...
