ABOUT
Mimi Iwasaki
Born in Philippines
Lives & works in Tokyo, Japan
As a child I always enjoyed creating things, and wanted to incorporate it into my career someday. I started off my fashion career as an intern in New York, and ended up in Tokyo years ago where I became a full time designer in the industry.
Although I specialized in designing, I always enjoyed sourcing new trims and communicating with manufacturers for their newest products. In my design team, I was also chosen by developers for having the most detailed and accurate techpack! Which took me to a new career path in product development.
When I'm not working, I enjoy spending my time with my loved ones, my pets, cooking, knitting/crocheting, traveling, reading, and exercising.
