Actress Yoshitaka Yuriko lit up the opening of the GLOBAL WORK GINZA flagship store on March 25, 2025, bringing a touch of both style and humor to the event. The flagship store, set to officially open its doors on March 27, 2025, is located in the vibrant Ginza district at the Marronnier Gate 3. As a brand ambassador for GLOBAL WORK, Yoshitaka's presence attracted significant attention from fans and media alike.
At the event, she captivated attendees in a chic spring outfit featuring a large ribbon cinched at her waist, accentuating her playful style. When one of the event hosts remarked that her outfit resembled a gift, Yoshitaka responded with her signature flair, asking, "Everyone might like to receive it, right?" This light-hearted interaction was emblematic of her warm and engaging personality, winning the audience over instantly.
Yoshitaka didn’t hold back in sharing her experiences during the talk session, where she humorously reflected on her past roles, including wearing traditional twelve-layered robes in the Taiga drama 'Hikaru Kimi e.' She joked about how the experience left her feeling as if she might 'lose her shoulders' due to the weight of the attire, prompting laughter from the crowd.
Her outfit, combining a soft white dress with a stylish black vest adorned with the statement ribbon, was a hit—deftly merging adult sophistication with youthful charm. During the event, she engaged in a fun Q&A method, choosing between two cards labeled A or B for various questions posed by fans and the media. When asked about her go-to attire for girls' gatherings, she confidently opted for a set-up while smilingly adding, "I like shoulder pads because I have narrow shoulders."
In addition to her fashion commentary, Yoshitaka shared an amusing anecdote about her recent visit to a magic bar in Ginza. With clear enthusiasm, she recounted her bewilderment at the tricks performed by the magicians, stating, "I went to a magic bar, and I have no idea what was happening! Cards flew around, and some were found in the most unexpected places like a bottle or a piece of fruit. The magic really left me wondering, 'What’s going on? Still, it’s fascinating how life can surprise us!"
Yoshitaka’s sparkling demeanor and infectious energy painted a vivid picture of the opening event, showcasing the unique blend of tradition and modernity present in Ginza. Reflecting on the area’s appeal, she remarked on how it beautifully marries the old with the new, albeit with a tongue-in-cheek acknowledgment of the costs: "It is a pricey area, but I think GLOBAL WORK offers reasonably priced options!"
The opening is poised to reinforce GLOBAL WORK’s brand presence in the bustling Tokyo fashion scene, providing a space that appeals to both locals and tourists alike. As the first flagship store for the brand, it represents a significant step forward in their expansion and outreach.
With her lively spirit and engaging storytelling, Yoshitaka Yuriko not only celebrated the brand’s achievements but also highlighted the charm and vibrancy of the Ginza district, making for a memorable event that delighted all in attendance. As fans and fashion enthusiasts await the official launch of GLOBAL WORK’s flagship store, they can look forward to more engaging experiences with the brand and its beloved ambassador.
