Talento Wakatsuki Chinatsu announced on her official blog that two stores for her apparel brand "WC" will be closing in late August.

According to her August 8th blog entry, the Harajuku shop will close on the 21st and the Shibuya 109 shop will close on the 31st. Wakatsuki reported, "I have an important, perhaps unfortunate news for everyone." She then wrote about her sadness on parting with Shibuya 109.

"WC" is a girls clothing brand based on American pop, and is known for Wakatsuki's original designs. According to the brand's official website, four stores (including Shinjuku Lumine Est and Shinsaibashi OPA), as well as the online shops will continue to be in business.
