Japanese Fashion

Japanese Fashion Information

Each country does their own fashion thing. I spent some time in Asia and can honestly say that their trends vary from what you see here in the states. Japanese fashion in particular caught my attention. I almost thought that their attire was more risque than ours. Of course they live by a different set of rules over there. All in all, I suppose it's fair to say that pretty much anything goes in certain parts of Asia. I just don't know if America is ready for some of the things I saw while visiting last summer.

Punk fashion is virtually everywhere now days. I initially thought if I visited Asia, I would never see oodles of piercings and tattoos like we do here in the states. Wow, was I ever delusional. Current Japanesefashion is loaded with these trends. You might even see more Gothic/punk outer-wear over there than you do over here. The hairstyles were insane and colorful to say the very least. Naturally like in most regions, these fashion trends involved primarily the youth. I didn't see any 50 year old business men with tattoos and lip piercings. I suppose what is regarded as professional over there if likely similar to here. Most countries tend to agree on this notion. Or at least from what I've deducted.

Japanese Fashion Advice

Check this out. One of the most bizarre Japanesefashion trends I encountered in Tokyo was see-through clothing. Actually it wasn't see-through at all. Instead it had a picture on it. Can you imagine a woman walking around in a skirt with a picture on it, leading others to believe that they're seeing her nude legs and underwear? This is just weird if you ask me. I can't really grasp the point of this odd fashion trend. But I will say that I wouldn't want my wife, child, or sister wearing such a garment. It's just a bit too extreme and perverse for my taste. I understand that the fashion world is a forever-changing entity, but sometimes designers are taking it too far. What ever happened to just good old-fashioned clothes that keep you warm in the winter, cool in the summer and looking nice?
