[Oricon Poll] Top 5 artists who would do the best work as fashion designers
 
*editing again*

sorry guys, looks like someone made a little mixup with the translation for this news xD
now I'm not sure if this poll was about who would be the best fashion designer or who would work best with fashion designers... according to KumiLoveS it's the first option, but it's kind of a nonsense... anyway, it's another weird poll from Oricon after all, and if someone could translate it better from Oricon itself, it would be great :D

Top 5:

01. Ayumi Hamasaki
02. Koda Kumi
03. Kaela Kimura
04. Tsuyoshi Domoto (Kinki Kids)
05. aiko

I totally agree with this list. ...Except with Kuu's latest clothing choices I don't think I'd buy hers. But Tsuyoshi and aiko both dress well.
Thanks for this! <3

AyuGAME 3rd April 2008 05:25 PM

no doubt that she can get number one position

ayumisrael 3rd April 2008 05:26 PM

No wonder why ayu is in the 1st place, she has an awesome fasion sense.
Kristel should be #2.

ayu-fan 3rd April 2008 05:27 PM

i don't see namie, i think she's pretty stylish too.

~ayu-cake~ 3rd April 2008 05:31 PM

Hehe :)
Congrats to Ayu~

Queen Bee 3rd April 2008 05:35 PM

I'm not surprised to see Ayu as #1 but I would have thought Namie would have been in the top 5 as well.

AyuHamasaki01 3rd April 2008 05:38 PM

CONGRAAATZ TO AYU! I love Ayu's clothes.
She has a great sense for fashion

eeeew... Kumi got second.
Hello?! Why?! Kumi wears stuff instead of clothes. Her clothes are just eeeewww... Kumi shouldn't be in this list :eviltongu

:yes Yeah, I completely agree with that :D

Madden-X 3rd April 2008 05:45 PM

Hmmm.. I do agree with the list. I actually like Kumi's fashion a little bit more these days.. because ayu is losing her touch in wearing something good.. I mean, it has been ages since she actually wore something in a photoshoots or tv performances we normal humans call 'jeans'. I specially loved her clothes in her I am - Memorial Address period... after (miss)understood.. everything is bleeeh

Fixed.. ^_^

Neo Daydream 3rd April 2008 05:48 PM

of course! ^^

ayu_ready? 3rd April 2008 06:04 PM

Kumi? well her sexy style was awesome in 2005, but hell no not today :shakehead

where's Namie? and what about....hmm, Mika? she's so art-house-ish, vintage-ish
she would be cool :)

Tom Punks 3rd April 2008 06:39 PM

I doubt Koda Kumi would be on there if she wasn't super popular right now. When I think of her, I just don't think "fashion." When I think of Ayu, I definitely think of fashion.

*Petit* 3rd April 2008 06:46 PM

Koda at two? O.o That would be the equivalent of voting FERGIE as fashion leader. :eviltongu:rolleyes:o

monsoonbaby 3rd April 2008 06:51 PM

Ayu deserves the no.1 spot, aiko too and Tsuyoshi (especially), they all have their very own style.

Namie not is the list is kind of :(

BoBo 3rd April 2008 07:16 PM

ayu n1 in everything :)

Yoake 3rd April 2008 07:23 PM

Ayu is the best

ownsarai 3rd April 2008 07:26 PM

Nice to see Ayu on top here, she has such great fashion sense. :) Congatulations Ayu!

ImpactBreaker 3rd April 2008 07:27 PM

In the brazilian kumi forum, they say kumi was chosen beecause the majority who voted in thast poll were male, and they thought kumi had the perfect body lines and curves for sexy clothes designs.

Chandrachan 3rd April 2008 07:53 PM

I agree with the top 2 but where's Mika?

My poll would be -

Mika Nakashima
Ayumi Hamasaki
Koda Kumi

DestinyWishes 3rd April 2008 07:57 PM

Congrats on Ayu getting no. 1, but Ku no. 2? Ummm her latest clothes have been a bit umm.. well I'm not going to say anything...

tokyoxjapanxfan 3rd April 2008 07:58 PM

i like ku and all, but she's only in the list because she's popular. her fashion really isnt that...difinitive? iunno, she's not really a fashionista. mostly because she usually lacks clothing and/or her clothing is not that nice...granted im not saying EVERYTHING she wears is bad, but in my taste...its not all that appealing.

as for ayu, she's more of a couture person, something you;d see on runways rather than commercial, which I like better. her current style isn't all that copy-able, but it's no doubt amazingly beautiful!

and tsuyoshi is AWESOME. haha. as for the res,t i dont really know much about them. i do like kaela's hair though :)

Ayumiko 3rd April 2008 08:35 PM

glad to see ayu no# 1...she does have very unqiue fashion styles...and gives off the feeling that she have total control over her fashion. :) Namie should definitely be there...atleast no #2 if not no #1. Koda shouldn't be there atleast not so high up on the list. Her fashion sense since 2007 got bad...:dead2 Mika is good too...but she's not there.

then isn't that more like a model than a fashion designer?

apple-pi 3rd April 2008 08:38 PM

Thanks for the info!
It's great to see Ayu in first place! Though I guess kinda predictable, haha~

minna 3rd April 2008 08:45 PM

hell yeah I agree! XD
Ayu style is so unique & awesome! <3
congrats to ayu :D

I think this poll was made for college students in order to know which of these artists would look the best to have fashion clothes designed using their sillhouette - so yep, who'd be the best model for fashion designing. It would be really weird to point any of those as them "designing" the fashion, because they're singers/performers, not stylists. I mean, ayu might have refined tastes for what she buys, but it doesn't mean she'd make a good creator of clothes designs. Both things are totally unrelated. I love music but I'm a horrible composer and I can't play instruments. See where I'm getting at? I guess we need a more clarifying translation on what that poll was indeed.

Ayumiko 3rd April 2008 09:08 PM

ah I see...thanks for clearing that up. I really thought the poll was to see which artist will be a great fashion designer if they were to be one.

That makes sense. XD

Anna Willow 3rd April 2008 09:22 PM

oh, so maybe the guys @ KumiLoveS got the translation a little wrong. sorry y'all. ^^
I'll contact the credited staff on that news, thanks for clearing that up.

ImpactBreaker 3rd April 2008 09:27 PM

^It's no problem. Maybe you posted the right translation, but since in the koda kumi forum they mention kumi was chosen because of how her body fits for sexy clothes, maybe there might be a little mistake on the interpretation...or maybe japanese ppl just chose the weirdest reason for chosing kuu, and that's confusing us ahahahha

It still could be that though, so we will have to wait & see what it really was. These japanese polls are usually very weiord anyways :laugh

Anna Willow 3rd April 2008 09:31 PM

yeah I'm totally confused now, maybe it would be easier to understand if it wasn't about an Oricon poll xD

Bigtop 3rd April 2008 09:50 PM

That's surprising one of the boys are inside the top ten, as mostly fashion designers would be women...

But that's great for Ayu - #1!

Beauty4123 3rd April 2008 09:54 PM

cool poll. nice to see ayu and kuu on there.

ll moments ll 3rd April 2008 10:37 PM

yeah, Ayu would definitely be a cool fashion designer! :)

Domoto Tsuyoshi as well. he has a unique fashion sense!

Deneb 3rd April 2008 11:03 PM

congrate to ayu, but I am not suprised lol

elepop 3rd April 2008 11:11 PM

Where's hitomi? XD

Qt Mashi 4th April 2008 12:19 AM

yessss!!! glad Ayu got no.1

thanks for the news

Melon Panda 4th April 2008 12:33 AM

Koda Kumi as #2? That I definitely don't agree with. None of her outfits stand out in the "fashion" sense. Ayumi's clothes may not be completely practical as of late, but much of high fashion isn't.

angelwing886 4th April 2008 12:58 AM

ayu have awesome fashion sense
Congatulations Ayu!

freedreamer 4th April 2008 03:00 AM

Nice! haha..she deserves it so much...

kirei_ayumi 4th April 2008 03:09 AM

Ayu's fashion sense is pretty good. good to see she's #1!

Hanabi_surreal 4th April 2008 04:34 AM

I think Ayu wears amazing clotes, but... I don't see her AT ALL as designer >.<

Kikaru 4th April 2008 05:19 AM

^I think she actually designed some of the corset tops she wore in 2005 or something (I read that somewhere in an interview). I definitely like her current fashion; big dresses aside, they're very classy and elegant.

Not a big fan of Koda Kumi's fashion. Really, I think kuu's kinda stuck in the bad part of eighties with the weird leg-warmers and the huge tops and colors with her fashion, and she has this habit of over-doing, like with accessories and nails (which is just too long IMO).

AyUta 4th April 2008 05:50 AM

Ayu has a great fasion sense so it doesn't surprise me that's she's #1. :D
But I don't really like Kuu's style all that much. Especially right now, I HATE the baggy clothing she's been recently wearing. But some of her clothes were very cute and or very beautiful.

LacusClyne 4th April 2008 06:05 AM

if anyone pay attention to those high school girls fashion magazines, kuu inspire them about ero-kawaii clothes. That should be the reason why she's no 2

criminal 4th April 2008 04:30 PM

I love all of these artists, so I feel like giving an opinion & I know you feel like reading it. :P

01 Ayumi Hamasaki - You are a fashion icon. You would have great success in lines for wealthy women who want to look amazing.
02 Koda Kumi - Your followers would definitely try and copy you, but only you can look as bad as you do sometimes, sry2say.
03 Kaela Kimura - 80s is the new 00s. 'Nuff said. Actually, no, wait. You're style isn't all 80s, so, I think low-maintenance girls and wannabe-androgynous boys would worship your store.
04 Tsuyoshi Domoto (Kinki Kids) - FRICKIN' YES. You dress in every style imaginable and there would be stuff in your collection for, like, every occasion.
05 aiko - I love aiko and her clothing sense, but I'm surprised that the people who answered the poll do too. :O Anyway, you'd really work the 7-sizes-too-big-but-still-fierce feeling in your collection. Mega-comfort along with mega-prettiness.

I_you_me 4th April 2008 04:33 PM

go ayu!! ^^

TITANIC 6th April 2008 01:06 PM

congratz to ayu :D

MeruChan 6th April 2008 01:27 PM

Ayu should get #1 totally!
Kuu's #2 position...hmmm
So happy that Kaela is there..and about aiko..hmm...she wear pants that doesn't fit her size all the time...

che0173 6th April 2008 02:00 PM

not surprising about ayu being top number 1...but err...koda being second...dats just weird =S
no offence to koda fans ^_^

hiroshi_ben 6th April 2008 03:21 PM

namie should be in top5 instead of aiko...and i think kuu's fashion is more "young" while ayu's more "elegant" and mature

Cloudsoldier 6th April 2008 04:34 PM

my top #5 in no order

Ayu, Kumi, Namie, BoA, Nakashima Mika

and Kuu designs Modern Yukata/Kimono too. They are great.

Cyria 6th April 2008 04:56 PM

I'm glad she got this #1, fashion is such a big part of her image.

Jwiz 6th April 2008 05:52 PM

^ yeah me too, but i afraid that ayu will design clothes that are too expensive.

austin. ♥ 6th April 2008 10:03 PM

Yay Ayu! She's such a fashion icon. :)

MeruChan 7th April 2008 08:49 AM

i think namie did inspire the mini skirt and boots look BUT her fashion style is boring...where as Ayu and the others has ever changing looks.though not as drastic as ayu..Namie IMO just stays the same...no matter where she go..what she does..she's in her bootie...

M_aria 8th April 2008 02:48 AM

I am surprised that hitomi is not on the top 5

naxxo.licious™ 8th April 2008 04:21 AM

OBVIOUSLY ayu!!! I'm so glad that after 10 years she's still the fashion queen in Japan ^^! Congrats to ayu!

mui-gei-tal 8th April 2008 06:54 AM

aww...i was hoping to see mika~ she has an unique sense of style! but this list is not bad too =o

se7entheaven 8th April 2008 11:20 AM

ayu designs better clothes than kuu does

alternarist 8th April 2008 11:46 AM

lol.. wearing nice looking/trendy clothes doesnt mean they noe how to design them...

koda designs lingerie?
