About Pray for Peace Collection The Pray for Peace Collection is an activity that uses fashion shows to wish for peace through fashion, music, and art. This collection, which started in Hiroshima in 2019, is celebrating its 6th anniversary this year. So far, we have held events in Okinawa, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Hakodate. We use fashion to express the precious dignity of wishing for peace for the sake of our children's future. Japan was also the only country to suffer from atomic bombings, and suffered the devastation of a tragic ground war. Even as we face the misery of war, what we should convey to our children, who have a bright future, is not the ``misery of war.'' ``The dignity of wishing for peace.'' The model participants in the show are children. We invite applications from the public, centered on each host city, and create a system that allows a diverse range of people to participate, regardless of whether they have a disability or not. Children shining brightly at the fashion show naturally bring warm smiles to their faces. I hope that the circle of people wishing for peace will expand. As the world is currently surrounded by a disturbing atmosphere, war has become more familiar to us, and we have decided that now is the time to speak out, rather than doing nothing.On June 23, 2023, Okinawa Memorial Day, we decided to speak out. This was our first attempt to hold the event in Okinawa. The event received a great response and had the highest number of model applicants of any event in the past, and was fully booked, with many asking for the event to be held again next year. We are determined to continue this peace activity on a permanent basis, and this year will be the second time we have held it. We will warmly launch the message of peace from Okinawa with models and costumes.
