Key looks include a cotton embroidered all-in-one that makes a statement on its own, as well as mature casual styling with soft pink tones and denim. In the campaign visuals, Kanako Momota expresses the collection through her many charms, from her bright, sparkling smile to more mature, fleeting expressions. Momota commented that the shoot was exciting from the moment she entered the studio and remained enjoyable until the end. She said the location was beautiful and lifted her mood even further. With many bright and refreshing summer pieces, she felt that simply wearing the clothes made her feel more cheerful, reminding her once again of the power of fashion. She was especially impressed by the perfect fit and named the white all-in-one as one of her favorites. She hopes people who struggle to find the right size will try the collection, and said she wants everyone to wear COHINA this summer, go out to many places, and create lasting memories. Featured items include COHINA × KAIHARA DENIM, a denim series created in collaboration with KAIHARA, one of Japan’s leading denim manufacturers.
