History
Established in 1987 by Espoir Co., Ltd., Cecil McBee became a defining symbol of Shibuya 109 fashion in Tokyo. For over a decade, it maintained the highest sales volume within the iconic department store, influencing Japanese youth trends throughout the 1990s and 2000s. The brand represented the peak of the "Gal" fashion movement before shifting market dynamics and the COVID-19 pandemic led to the closure of its physical retail locations in 2020.
