Dearest Japan, I just feel like you really get me and, look, the feeling's mutual. You're a big proponent of Cat Cafes. You are deeply and passionately obsessed with all things Kawaii. Trust me. I understand. You've been a constant source of inspiration for me and my label, Wren, ever since my very first visit to Tokyo back in 2001, and you don't disappoint with my latest discovery: the toy poodles in elaborate hairdos, costumes, and scenarios trend. You did it again, Japan. You did it again.
