Is anyone interested in Japanese fashion? Gwen Stefani sang about Harajuku girls, but Harajuku is only one trendy neighborhood in Japan, plus, there are so many styles!
Are you familiar with any of the cute styles such as Lolita, Decora, or the beautiful brand Takuya Angel?
Even if you are not familiar with the specific styles, have you ever seen people wearing the 'Harajuku' styles of fashion? The books FRUiTS and FRESH FRUiTS are good places to see pictures of kids walking around Harajuku in their amazing outfits.

I'm interested in Japanese fashion i believe they have a good fashion sense. I haven't yet seen people on the streets wearing Harajuku style. If you could put up pictures it would be great.

people here had their haircut in japanese style
but for the fashion, they didn't imitate it totally
people here are not ready for such outlook like lolita etc
the girls always dress like the girls in the ViVi magazine
and me myself prefer such style than the lolita etc style
what do you call such style ?? glam look huh ??
heheheee.. cheers ^^

Vivi magazine? I guess you would call that... Oshare-style!
Oshare = Fashionable
I don't know if people really use that term a lot, but that's what I think ^^

yep. ^.^ i am very much aware of japanese fashion. i love it, there are times before that i tend to wear street fashion. lolita on the other hand is only seen in cosplays. i even had my hair cut like the cute hair styles in dollfie and some of the jpop and jrock hair styles.

i love japanese street fashion. i'm only partly japanese, so i tried ways to achieve the look. i had my hair super straightened last summer, and i love cartoon characters stuff. i'm not all that familiar with their different styles though, and i don't get their unusual trend of wearing masks...

heh?? not really, a lot of girls here wears that kind of outfit but most of them do not have that kind of style. but i think its cute if you want to stand out. i still prefer comfortable but trendy clothes.
