about

I'm Shōgo

I'm Okamoto Shōgo, 34, a menswear writer and influencer in Tokyo. I like a charcoal coat, a cream knit and one small touch of red, and I look for outfits that still make sense when the light goes.

I photograph them in backstreets at blue hour and in tailors' rooms in Daikanyama. Brands and magazines write to me through my media kit, and you can take home the styling lookbook I put together each year.
