Japan Fashion Week Organization (JFWO hereinafter) has come to the decision of cancelling the “Rakuten Fashion Week TOKYO 2020 A/W” (RakutenFWT 2020 A/W hereinafter), which had been scheduled to be held from March 16th (Mon.) to March 21st (Sat.).

As apprehensions due to the Corona Virus (COVID-19) outbreak rise daily, our primary and utmost concern always being the safety/security of all parties involved, after heavy discussions with related parties, we have come to the painful decision of there being no other choice than to give up RakutenFWT 2020 A/W.

For those brands which were scheduled to participate in RakutenFWT 2020 A/W, JFWO will continue to do our very best within our power, to provide support in gaining business opportunities, such as introducing collections on the RakutenFWT official website, support in having looks introduced in national and international medias, etc.

But first, we would like to take this opportunity to apologize to all those people who have poured time and effort into participating in this event. We are sincerely sorry for having to reach this disappointing decision.
