This is a must-see project designed to satisfy both your visual cravings and your fashion desires!
This summer, denim continues to be a hot trend. ViVi’s September issue is thrilled to present a denim feature starring Hiroshi Iwase, showcasing his exceptional style. Known not only for his breathtaking looks but also for his extraordinary physique, Iwase-san models four distinct denim looks that are relatable and purchasable for fans. The feature includes ladies’ sizes and unisex denim items, making it easy for you to find denim to create “Osoro” (matching outfits) with him. You’ll be captivated by the cool visuals while also discovering your next favorite denim piece for the summer!
On the day of the photoshoot, Iwase-san, who expressed his love for denim, even arrived in his personal denim set-up. He showed genuine excitement as he picked up various denim pieces prepared for the shoot, eagerly deciding on outfits.
His first look features a Calvin Klein denim set-up. Commenting that “denim is best as a set-up,” he skillfully posed, rolling up his sleeves and moving the jacket to create dynamic shots. Paired with a simple black tank top and no belt, he presented a classic denim style that truly shone. The photo above, taken just a few turns into the first look, was an instant favorite, confirming the project’s immense potential as Iwase-san’s excitement grew. Be sure to enjoy all four looks, feeling that same thrilling atmosphere!
While the remaining three looks await you in the magazine, here’s a little sneak peek:
-
For one look, he sports an indigo denim from a prestigious American denim brand. Iwase-san styled it in a rough and wild way, incorporating an item he had never used before in his life. You might just see an expression you’ve never witnessed from him!
-
Another look features denim from a popular “it” brand favored by ViVi. The moment he tried on this denim, famous for its leg-lengthening effect, he exclaimed, “This is amazing! My legs look so long!” clearly thrilled by the quality of this “gyaru” (gal) brand.
-
The final look showcases uniquely designed denim, styled with a “Heisei Gyaruo” (Japanese male fashion trend from the Heisei era) theme, allowing him to truly let loose and have fun.
Each denim styling comes with comments from Hiroshi Iwase himself! If you find a denim piece you love, make sure to get the “Osoro” item and match with him! This feature is your ultimate guide to finding your perfect summer companion.
