Reviews
"A funny, funky look at Tokyo's street fashion... Guaranteed to give you that happy-all-over feeling."--Elle "Fascinating... Inventive."--i-D "Will delight all dedicated followers of fashion."--Glamour "hat is exciting about [Aoki's] photographs is that he portrays teenagers' desires to express themselves through the way they dress. The originality and non-conformist attitudes they exude show little desire to follow trends. By taking in references as far flung as Blade Runner nihilism, Vivienne Westwood couture and Hello Kitty kitschness, Aoki's subjects pride themselves on creating a personal identity that is instantly recognisable as their own."--Dazed & Confused, "A funny, funky look at Tokyo's street fashion...

  • Loved this book...Fruits

    I bought this book for my 16 year old Granddaughter. When I received it in the mail, I started leafing through it, couldn't put it down. It's a great book showing Japanese fashion, which is catching on in USA. Colorful to say the least. It's very hard to believe some of the attire, and the shoes !!!!! I also purchased Fresh Fruits, also by Shoichi Aoki. Both books were on her birthday wish list. She was absolutely thrilled with both of them, and quite surprised that I was able to find both of them. Awesome books!

  • Fruits

    The pictures were excellent, although they only give small captions about the people photographed instead of giving a longer description of the hows and whys of Harajuku fashion other than on the back cover.

  • authentic tokyo street fashion on display

    if you love tokyo pop culture and street fashion, this book provides high quality photos on every page, along with info about where the clothes were purchased, the point of the look, and the wearers interests.

  • Great book

    I love this book! full of colourful photos taken on streets of Japan. the street fashion is off the hook. I wish I was so creative!

  • Need fashion ideas?

    Need fashion ideas? This is a great place to start. All the fashion street kids in this book are visually stunning and can leave you in awe. A beautiful book to look at and gives you an insight into young Japanese Culture.
