Mrs. GREEN APPLE has been tapped as the muse for QRO (pronounced "Kuro," meaning black), a new specialized label launched by Japanese eyewear chain Megane Ichiba.

The band will star in a television commercial for the black glasses brand titled "Megane Ichiba 'QRO' DEBUT-hen" (Glasses Market QRO Debut Edition), which begins airing February 27th.

This partnership marks an interesting collaboration between one of Japan's most popular rock acts and the eyewear industry. Mrs. GREEN APPLE, known for their melodic rock sound and theatrical performances, has been steadily gaining international recognition alongside their massive domestic success.

QRO represents Megane Ichiba's focused approach to black-framed eyewear, a classic style that has remained consistently popular in Japanese fashion. The choice of Mrs. GREEN APPLE as the brand's muse suggests QRO is targeting a younger, style-conscious demographic.

The band's involvement likely extends beyond just the commercial, though specific details about their role as "muse" haven't been revealed. Given Mrs. GREEN APPLE's strong visual aesthetic and fashion sense, they seem like a natural fit for an eyewear brand looking to establish a distinctive identity in the competitive Japanese glasses market.

Fans can expect to see the new QRO commercial featuring Mrs. GREEN APPLE starting next week across Japanese television networks.
