Mixed Feelings

Very enjoyable manga. The art is beautiful and simple, mimicking the "controlled blocks of black and expressive linework" that fashion artist like Rene Gauru are known for. The story isn't as preachy as other stories that try to tackle the artificiality of the celebrity lifestyle and address the matter tastefully, which I appreciated; was like a breathe of fresh air. My only criticism of the story is that the characters fell flat. Characters, including our protagonist, who should have had some significant character development by the end of the story, remained static.

Other than that, lovely. Appropriately labeled "Avante-garde", appealed to the fashion student that I am.
