Coco, a young girl from Japan born in 2o10, is making a name for herself on Instagram, with over 600,000 followers. Like a true star, she regularly takes photos of her looks and shares them on social media. Her style is always on point, taking inspiration from streetwear.
All of her outfits are worn with boldness and a nonchalant expression as she proudly sports her Chanel bags, Comme des Garçons messenger bag, Gucci shoes and Burberry skirt… with a multitude of accessories from glasses to hats, all equally colourful.
Childhood spent in her parents’ vintage boutique
The young girl, who was immersed in fashion from an early age as her parents own a vintage boutique in Tokyo’s Harajuku district, selects her clothes with the help of her father, and explains that what she likes about fashion is precisely the fact that you can choose what you wear.
Her popularity has attracted the attention of various brands, with Coco appearing in a number of advertising campaigns for brands like Moncler and Nike. Success on Instagram is ageless, however, as proven by Kimiko Nishimoto, a woman in her nineties who posts photos of herself in original poses, full of tongue-in-cheek humour.
Coco’s latest posts can be found on her Instagram account.
