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

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

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]

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... Mika is good too...but she's not there.

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

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

[minna]

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]

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]

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]

^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

[Anna Willow]

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

[Bigtop]

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]

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

[ll moments ll]

yeah, Ayu would definitely be a cool fashion designer!

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

[Deneb]

congrate to ayu, but I am not suprised lol

[elepop]

Where's hitomi? XD

[Qt Mashi]

yessss!!! glad Ayu got no.1

thanks for the news

[Melon Panda]

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]

ayu have awesome fashion sense
Congatulations Ayu!

[freedreamer]

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

[kirei_ayumi]

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