She was the one who took the booklet photos.. probably at Ayu's request.
PEACH JOHN is actually Japan's equivalent to Victoria's Secret. Mika Noguchi was even featured in TIME magazine.

Quote:
Mika Noguchi, a mother of four, runs a company larger than most. Although she never went to college, Noguchi at age 21 knew one very important thing: what lingerie women liked to wear. Eschewing the sexy styles of male designers, Noguchi in 1987 began designing frilly, flowery creations that she calls "I love me" underwear. Her company, Peach John, started out as a catalogue company, and is now Japan's answer to Victoria's Secret, with $8 million in sales last year.
