Tokyo, Japan


Hi all! The biggest news for this week of course is not KONY 2012 but the Japanese earthquake anniversary (3/11/2012). Besides sending out our prayers to those victims, we are going to introduce Japanese fashion so that it may catch some viewers’ interests to visit Japan as tourists to help thriving the economics.

Japan is known for unique and extraordinary fashion. There are so many different fashion styles in different regions of Japan. In different regions, there are also different cultures and subcultures that influence the fashion trends. Those styles change every season in a really fast pace. Trends come and go. Brands are born and die. There is no time for you to catch up with a trend because it will go out of fashion when you notice already.

I am going to focus on Tokyo, which is the heart of Japanese fashion. The three most popular districts that young people and all the fashionistas gather in Tokyo are Harajuku, Sibuya, and Shinjuku. On the streets of these three places, you don’t see only one particular style but variety of them. Some of them are fascinated with western style. Some of them are caught by vintage fever. Some of them are obsessed with subcultural trends. Let’s look at all these street photos and find out how these fashion freaks in Japan pull all the styles together!
