The frilly skirts, jackets resemble uniforms. There’s a change happening in race queen costumes today.
Readers might often think of the old “formal attire” as highlighting the high-leg style. However, nowadays, cute designs reminiscent of idols have become mainstream.
At the end of May, during the “NAPAC Fuji SUPER TEC 24-hour Race,” which attracted a record-breaking 54,000 attendees, a notable shift in race queen attire was evident. Among the 100 race queens present, there were fewer daring outfits.
“I saw race queens in skirts, but there were significantly fewer provocative outfits emphasizing body lines as before. There was a noticeable shift towards an idol-like approach in how they were presented. Matsuda Ran, who won the Grand Prix at the Race Queen Awards announced in January this year, performed singing and dancing on a special stage, receiving enthusiastic cheers from over 100 fans. There were also signings and merchandise sales, resulting in long queues.” (spokesperson from the race management company)
