Korean 4 member girl group 2NE1 were found to have been appointed to be on the cover of the weekly fashion magazine “WWD Japan” (INFAS publications) for their “WWD Japan / Winter Issue”. In the past, female figure skater Asada Mao and singer-actress Miyazawa Rie have graced the cover of the magazine but 2NE1 have become the first Korean artist to take that position.
The editorial department of “WWD Japan” have photographed the likes of Hamasaki Ayumi and Koda Kumi [T/N: Very famous superstars in the music scene] and because the cameraman, Leslie Kee, who is active all around Asia had noticed 2NE1, this project was able to be achieved for this issue. 2NE1 are wearing clothes of a collection from French high fashion brand “BALMAIN”. The clothes worn by all the members appear to be of luxurious fashion as the total cost of the member’s clothing is about 25 million yen (approx. $322,000 USD).
The shooting was done in a studio in Tokyo in mid October. Once the photoshoot that took a substantial amount of time was over, the members commented “we also love BALMAIN clothes so we were able to enjoy this shoot”. With them [2NE1] gracing the cover of the quarterly released magazine “WWD Japan”, they are not only seen as an artist figure but it is likely they will also gather attention from others as fashion stars as well.
