ViVi September Issue: Sakurazaka46’s Ten Yamasaki, Kotona Minami, and YENA Shine with High Jewelry! Comedian Matsushita Makes a Hilarious Debut!

It Girls and Dreams with Jewelry: A Glimpse into Their Aspirations

This month, ViVi introduces a breathtaking feature titled “It Girls and Dreams with Jewelry,” where three luminous stars—ViVi exclusive model Ten Yamasaki from Sakurazaka46, talented actress Kotona Minami, and popular Korean artist YENA—grace the pages adorned in exquisite high jewelry. Each artist connects with iconic pieces from Cartier, TASAKI, and Tiffany, revealing their unique charm in stunning photo shoots. The magazine also includes in-depth interviews where they share the exhilaration of wearing these magnificent pieces and discuss their personal dreams.

Ten Yamasaki showcases her incredible expressive power as a ViVi model, embodying a cool and sophisticated style with Cartier’s iconic jewelry. She shared her admiration for Cartier, stating that wearing it felt like “a first step into adulthood.” Yamasaki also revealed a charming anecdote about wearing jewelry as “armor” on nerve-wracking workdays. Her heartfelt dream? “Decades from now, if I have grandchildren, I’d love to pass down the jewelry I’ve cherished,” she expressed.

Kotona Minami collaborates with TASAKI, known for its modern pearls. Initially, she admitted feeling a bit nervous, wondering if a “young girl like me could pull it off.” However, once adorned, her face lit up, feeling as though she had “joined the ranks of ladies.” Her feature offers a delightful blend of transparent visuals and genuine candidness, including her thoughts on earrings gifted by a dear friend and her recent passion for baking.

YENA takes on a bold and iconic style with multiple Tiffany jewelry pieces. She transforms her usual cute image into a more mature and charismatic look. During the shoot, she focused on “acting to exude charisma through expressions and gaze.” Her interview also reveals charming personal details, such as her love for Japanese hot springs and her dream of collaborating with YOASOBI’s ikura in Japan. Don’t miss the extensive Q&A, mostly answered in Japanese, in the ViVi September issue!

These three artists discover new facets of themselves through the world of high jewelry. This special fashion story, unique to ViVi, beautifully intertwines the distinct brand aesthetics with the individual charms of Ten Yamasaki, Kotona Minami, and YENA. Prepare to be inspired by visuals that might make you dream of owning such jewelry one day, and delve into their dreams and values in the ViVi September issue.
