Daikanyama is one of Tokyo's most famous fashion districts. Chacott’s main store is located only five minutes on foot from Daikanyama Station. Chacott is an original Japanese brand primarily selling ballet shoes, dancewear, and related products.
In recent years, lifestyles and ways of thinking have significantly changed. During this time, Chacott developed its business model to adopt the concept of “making life beautiful from within.” This includes exercise and food that elevates a woman’s sense of beauty.
Chacott Daikanyama is a building with a unique style that almost looks like a work of art. The six-storied building goes from the first basement floor to the fifth floor. It contains a product sales space, lesson rooms, a photography studio, a restaurant, and even a cafe.
Aside from products related to ballet costumes and dancewear, various artworks are displayed on each floor. A variety of limited-time collaboration exhibits are also held in the building.
Cafe Coteau: Take a Break After Exercising or Shopping!
Cafe Coteau, located on B1F, offers light meals, coffee, cakes, health-oriented sandwiches, and fruit smoothies.
There is a high ceiling, with tons of sunlight filtering in from large windows. This creates an open space with a bright atmosphere. Enjoying a delicious dessert on a sunny day would be an indulgent time.

Cafe Coteau’s sweets are all exquisite desserts with an equally beautiful appearance. In addition to cakes, baked sweets like madeleines are also popular.
At the time of this article, I ordered a white strawberry cake and Basque cheesecake. White strawberries are rare, but having a cake topped with a large white strawberry is attractive and an excellent display of craftsmanship.
The fragrance of high-quality strawberries and cocoa-flavored sponge cake pairs well together. On the other hand, the Basque cheesecake has a rich taste packed with flavor. It may look small, but you’ll feel satisfied after eating it.
The healthy green smoothie is the perfect drink to replenish energy and nutrients after exercising.
Many customers drawn by these aesthetically pleasing and healthy desserts and drinks would also agree.
These cookies are available in limited quantities. Made in the shape of ballet costumes and shoes, which align with Chacott’s concept, these cookies have such a charming cuteness that you can’t help but need it. They’re also great as small souvenirs!

The first basement floor is the lesson space for yoga and Pilates. Lessons are held in small groups, allowing students to receive detailed instruction during class.
Next to the lesson space is a shop specializing in sports and leisure wear. The fitting rooms are comfortable and spacious so that you can choose the perfect outfit easily.
Chacott clothing is known to have calming colors and simple designs. Bright, flashy colors aren’t used in their collections, so their clothes are suited for working out and casual wear.

While Chacott has locations across Japan, the ballet studio on the first floor of the Daikanyama Main Store has the largest space among the locations. The bright and spacious professional space encourages you to stretch your body and dance freely.
It is also fully furnished with a shower room and powder room. After working out, you can rinse your sweat and fix your makeup before heading home.
A Unique Experience at Chacott Daikanyama
Chacott is currently a representative brand that not only carries ballet products but also those related to women’s beauty. Ballet, yoga, and Pilates are regarded not only as a way to exercise and refresh your mind and body but also to promote beauty in one’s body shape.
The Daikanyama Main Store operates its own store with a wide selection of products. Whether at the beginner or advanced level, you will always find a product that best suits you.
You can purchase various types of ballet shoes, leotards, and stage costumes on the second and third floors. The store has a large selection of various styles and sizes for adults and children.
Specialized staff are also available to provide customer support on each floor, assisting you in choosing the right products.
Chacott Cosmetics: A Popular Makeup Brand
Chacott Cosmetics by Chacott is a stage makeup brand loved and often used by many professional dancers.
Chacott Cosmetics produces a stage makeup line alongside a makeup line for the general public. The base makeup and face powder are especially popular products.
The color development in cosmetics is important as a dancer’s skin color and makeup will appear different from usual under lighting used in stage performances. During a performance, their makeup might also wear off due to sweat.
For that reason, Chacott Cosmetics places emphasis on durability and staying power in their base makeup and face powders. Their products have received high ratings from many users and is one of the reasons why they have unwavering popularity.
Experience a Photoshoot and Have Photos Taken as a Ballerina!
On the top floor of the Daikanyama Main Store is a compact photoshoot studio.
At the studio, an ideal service is provided to dancers who were unable to capture themselves in their beautiful ballet costumes during performances. Additionally, this service is perfect for those who dream of becoming a dancer even though they may not have ballet experience.
Experienced professionals will help you with your makeup and guide you on what poses to do. They will help participants achieve their dreams in just a few hours.
Themes for the photoshoot will change periodically. Participants can select and reserve a theme that suits their preferences. This is the reason why each theme attracts the interest of various types of people.
The photoshoot service costs 60,500 yen (tax included). This includes costume rental, makeup, the photoshoot service, and digital photo files.
Chacott Daikanyama: Experiences Focused on Health and Beauty
Chacott continuously searches for beauty. Various events are hosted at the Daikanyama Main Store, allowing many people to gain in-depth knowledge and experience regarding beauty.
The events are designed in a way participants can gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between health and beauty while making use of different methods.
Even those who have never taken ballet lessons can have a fun and fulfilling time when visiting the store. Next time you visit Daikanyama, why not pay a visit to Chacott Daikanyama? You might make an unexpected discovery.
