It's been 20 years since the moment when I knew she was going to hit it big, and she's made so many miracles happen, left so many foot prints.

Music producer
As an entertainer, as a woman, you were yourself. You have always looked ahead and moved forward, and I have nothing but feelings of respect and gratitude.
Takeuchi Nanako
Singer
She has always been a hard worker, but she would never want to show it in front of others. She would confront everything head-on, and that's what I really respected about her.
Miyauchi Reina
Singer
When the TK Family gathered and sang together, she was the only one shining. She had a wonderful presence.
Kahala Tomomi

I am the same age as Amuro-san and I respect her strength, she can sing and dance, she's cute, she's got style, I suppose there will not be anyone like her again.
Mochida Kaori
Singer
I think the whole reason I wanted to sing while dancing is that I longed to be like the person named Namie Amuro. (...) She was really a woman everyone aspired to be like.
Koda Kumi
Singer
When I stood in front of you I wasn't able to say anything... but you were my idol when I was young and I think that from here on, your amazing performance will always remain in my memories.

You are our hero. I hope that lots of happiness will come to you for your future.

About Toi et Moi
Toi et Moi was created in 1997 under the name "Namie Amuro in French". It evolved into 3 different versions before becoming a gallery in 2011 (v4). The Final Version has been launched in September 2018 to pay homage to Amuro Namie's career and celebrate her retirement. It will keep being updated with more contents and archives.
Please enjoy the new page dedicated to Fashion designers! You will be able to find which collection items worn by Amuro-chan are from. I did not include midrange brands and only added an item when I was sure (or almost sure) which collection it was from. ![]()

A few items are sometimes taken from early collections. For example, the Givenchy jacket and skirt worn by Namie in 'Mint' PV in 2016 are from Resort 2011!![]()

Did you know that Amuro Namie's metallic dress for Final Space was inspired by Paco Rabanne? Stylist Noda Akira drew his inspiration from the Spanish designer's 1966 collection 'Twelve Unwearable Dresses'. This experimental work - dresses made of aluminium, metal or rhodoid plates - definitely left its mark on fashion. In 2014, Dolce & Gabbana even paid tribute to it for its Spring collection... that Amuro also happened to wear in Vogue Taiwan!![]()

Paco Rabanne's metallic dresses can now be found in museums around the world such as the MET or Palais Galliera. In 2018-2019, the Musée Le Secq des Tournelles in Rouen also dedicated a temporary exhibition to Paco Rabanne, calling him a "Fashion Metallurgist" (a nickname that borrows from Coco Chanel's comment).![]()
