YesStyle Sells Japanese Fashion from World-famous Shibuya 109 Department Store

TOKYO, Feb. 20, 2014 /PRNewswrie/ -- YesStyle, the leading online Asian fashion retailer and owner and operator of retail website YesStyle.com, is now an authorized e-shop for fashion brands featured at the world famous Shibuya 109 department store in Japan. YesStyle carries six Shibuya 109 brands, including Liz Lisa, GOLDS Infinity and MeJane, and is now the first and only authorized global online retailer of GLAD NEWS, MA*RS and GLAVIL by tutuHA.

Located in Shibuya, Japan, the Shibuya 109 department store has been a popular shopping mecca for fashionable young women since opening in 1979. The eight-floor building is comprised of small shops and boutiques offering unique fashion brands with styles ranging from casual and contemporary to cute, girly and "gyaru," a type of Japanese street fashion characterized by youthful, glamorous and attention-getting clothing, makeup and accessories.

YesStyle is the first and only authorized global online retailer of brands GLAD NEWS, MA*RS and GLAVIL by tutuHA, which join Liz Lisa, GOLDS Infinity and MeJane as the first six Shibuya 109 brands to be offered on YesStyle websites. Established in 2003, GLAD NEWS is the most recent addition to YesStyle, and boasts a large existing customer base both inside and outside of Japan, with many famous celebrities and music artists among its fans. The brand values individuals that have a "Strong Life", a "Strong Attitude" and a "Strong Heart", and creates unique styles for independent and sexy women.

MA*RS is one of the most popular "gyaru" brands, and is representative of "Shibuya-kei" fashion, referring to an urban center of youth pop culture in Tokyo. GLAVIL by tutuHA carries more unique and offbeat accessories and clothing evoking romance and rock'n'roll. The brand's name is derived from a portmanteau of "glam" and "devil", referring to the brand's use of devil horns, skulls, ribbons and lace.

The Shibuya 109 brands join a wide-ranging and expanding collection of Asian fashion brands at YesStyle, representing everything from casual street styles and contemporary office wear to evening dresses, accessories and lifestyle products. Joshua Lau, founder and CEO of YesStyle, is pleased to add Shibuya 109 brands to YesStyle's catalogue. "Shibuya 109 brands are among the most unique and eye-catching that you'll find in Asia, and we hope customers discover these styles when visiting our websites," said Lau. "YesStyle takes pride in offering a complete range of contemporary Asian fashion to our customers. Our selection would not be complete without Shibuya 109 and its brands."

YesStyle offers introductory sales for all its Shibuya 109 brands on its flagship website YesStyle.com, as well as regional websites YesStyle.com.au, YesStyle.co.uk, YesStyle.ca and YesStyle.com.hk. The company plans to launch more Shibuya 109 fashion brands online in the near future.
