Sachi is a top model who has graced the runways of a number of well known fashion houses for their Paris and Tokyo Collections.
Her extensive modeling career began when she was a student at Vantan Design Institute (Art College.)
Since 1998, she has regularly appeared as a model for Yohji Yamamoto`s collection.
And though retaining a modeling career, in October of 2005 Sachi launched "atomic green" - a ladies shoe line.
Unlike her own chic and trendy look, her shoe designs are delicate and gently feminine. After choosing a seasonal theme, she designs her shoe line based on inspirations from the small details of everyday life.
Her unique style includes assigning a poetic title to each design.
For this week's program, we followed her from the preparatory stages to the launch of her collection in mid July.
Sachi is very hands on. Here, she talks with craftsmen at the factory about design details and advises on alterations for the shoe samples.
As a model, Sachi has had the tactile experience of wearing high fashion creations. How has this inspired her creatively?

This year`s summer swimsuits have the look of clothes: rompers, frills. leggings and casual wear. The "look" on the street has become the "look" for the beach.
And the fabrics are also eye catching. A "sweet and sour" mix with denims and faux suede mixed with floral prints and lace.
