Japanese Streets
Step screenshotonto the 150% cool streets of Japan's big cities, where trendy youths garb themselves in everything from laid-back surfer togs to elaborate Lolita fashions. Punk, piercings, and shaved heads are making waves in Japan, appearing right alongside traditional kimonos on women and men. Some dress to emulate anime characters, while others seem to take inspiration from navel-baring pop stars. The site's Fashion TV features 12-layer kimonos and gothic cosplay raves. The Street Art section includes vampiric Hello Kitty style graphics from Mori Chack and Osaka funk with the orange-clad band UH Garden. There are lots of hidden treasures on this site, so dig deep or you'll miss all the cool stuff.
