Visual kei refers to a movement in Japanese popular culture characterized by the use of eccentric, sometimes flamboyant looks. This usually involves striking make-up, unusual hair styles and elaborate costumes, often, but not always, coupled with androgyny or distinctively feminine...
These looks have enjoyed popularity especially in Japanese music, ranging from independent underground projects to artists achieving mainstream success, with similarities to and influences from European and American genres like new wave, punk and glam rock. Any bands who at least at some point sported a visual kei theme include Dir en grey, Luna Sea, MUCC, Moi dix Mois and Malice Mizer.
What you about this? You like or don't like that costume?
I think that some strange, but very cool... for make a cosplay is very interesting and funny, but is so unusual.
