Japanese Retail Stores Handling Boys' Clothing


Figure 1.--Here we see Japanese retail clothing store offering children's clothes. There seems to be a focus on girls clothing. The image is not dated, but looks like the 1930s to us. Notice that the manaquins have Western features. We are assuming that is becaue they had to be imported from America or Europe..

We do not yet have information on Japanese retailers. We have found some Japanese mailorder catalogs, but because we don't have Japanese language capability, we know nothing about because the companies involved. The major modern department stores are: Daimaru (大丸), Hankyu Department Stores (阪急百貨店 ), Isetan (伊勢丹), Matsuzakaya (松坂), Mitsukoshi (三越 ), Parco (パルコ ), Sogo & Seibu (そごう・西武), Loft (ロフト), and Takashimaya (高島屋). We do not yet know anything about them and other retailers. We have found some interesting retail displays.
