There is a lady in Tokyo who is living a life that took her back a century. Kayo Asai, who aspires to be a "modern girl" from the end of the Taisho period to the early Showa period, sleeps in a room that has been recreated to look like the early Showa period, and spends her days reminiscing about the good old days, surrounded by retro items such as a black telephone, a brazier, and an ice refrigerator. Kayo Asai dresses, cooks, and lives like a modern girl - women who followed Westernized fashion and lifestyles in 1920s Japan. Seeing her in an old-fashioned room surrounded by a brazier, a wooden ice box refrigerator and other retro items, it's almost like we've slipped back in time to a century ago. Find out what drives her to live like the fashion-forward women of the 1920s in contemporary Tokyo.
