Parco Factory - 10 Happy Memories
When Blythe made her refreshing debut in Japan, she starred in a television commercial for a shopping center called Parco. Since the stimulating debut, she is here to stay. The 10th anniversary event will be a place to ponder the history of her work. The event will be held on the 6th floor of Shibuya Parco Part 1, at Parco Factory. In the past 10 years there has been 170 Neo Blythe dolls! Displaying the very first doll, Anniversary dolls, collaboration dolls and the common Blythe dolls that were sold over the years. The fans have log waited for the The 10th Anniversary doll which will be sold there first. The place to get this doll the earliest will be the Parco Factory shop.
Blythe first appeared in Parco’s television commercial in 2000 and in 2001, the first Neo Blythe was released and shed a new light giving a new perspective of what a fashion doll could mean to women all over Japan.
From that time, Blythe has become a leading ‘figure’ of new popular doll culture. It encompassed fields of fashion, accessories, handmade items, hair styling, and makeup customization.
You will be able to experience the whole Blythe history at this event. Dolls such as the first Neo Blythe “Parco limited” and the 1st Miss Anniversary, collaboration dolls along with all Blythe dolls released in Japan will be displayed at this exhibition.
This year, there are 3 anniversary girls in the form of Neo Blythe, Midie Blythe and Petite Blythe. They are the main attraction for this year's event! Give them a cute name that fits your personality!
Shops will be opening for a limited time at the event spaces for the 10th Anniversary. 10th Anniversary dolls, CWC limited dolls and products that are limited to the venue will be available for purchase.
Japan witnessed Blythe for the first time through Parco's TV commercial and since has become a sensation. There has been numerous interpretations of Blythe in the form of visuals, animation being one amongst many, we will be having these animations playing throughout the event.
