Tokyo Fashion Trends

2022-07-21T05:26:00.001-07:00

Since the 1980s, Tokyo has been the focal point of almost every new fashion and cultural trend to develop in Japan. As the world’s largest city, Tokyo’s dozens of unique districts and neighborhoods have been home to some of the most unique new forms of creativity and expression ever seen in the fashion industry.
Many people think of Tokyo fashion trends and assume they will find a wide array of outlandish designs and styles typical of the images they find in magazines and traveler’s books. While certain parts of Tokyo have become famous for outlandish colors and combinations of various styles, there are other styles and trends that are much more traditional or built off of existing styles from the west.
Japanese Fashion Trends Explained

Gyaru

When most people think of outlandish Japanese fashion, it is the Gyaru trends they are envisioning. Literally meaning “gal” in Japanese, Gyaru refers to the legions of young teenage (and early 20s) girls who take to the streets of Omotesando and Aoyama wearing incredibly expressive fashions.

Harajuku’s crowded streets are often a source of these trends, and often magazines like Egg are chosen reading for its practitioners. There are various different methods in which Gyaru girls dress and make themselves up, but the most commonly referenced is that of Ganguro in which incredibly dark fake tans are applied through bronzer and tanning equipment to darken the skin. White makeup and bleached hair contrast the darkened skin and expressive, bright clothing is often worn in conjunction.

Other Gyaru styles include B-Gyaru in which young women dress to look like popular overseas R&B artists, Himegyaru in which young women wear bright pink makeup, long eyelashes, and huge, bouffant hairstyles with expressive, almost gothic style dresses and bows. Another common term used to describe some Gyaru trends is Kogal – often referring to young women who alter their skin and hair color while attempting to constantly retain a “cute” look with trendy new clothing.

Yamanba is another popular derivative of Gyaru style that involves wearing excessive makeup, stickers of cartoon characters and a large amount of fake jewelry and brightly colored clothing. Ganguro makeup is often applied and hair extensions are often added.

Onii-Kei

This popular Tokyo fashion trend refers to a way in which many young Japanese males dress, combining “ame-kaji” or American Casual with “ita-kaji” or Italian Casual with a Japanese sense of rock and glam. Usually men who follow this fashion trend are interested in acquiring the newest and most fashionable label products and are very much into accessories such as belts, watches, sunglasses, and pouches from those brands. A popular hair style for Onii-kei style men is the “Wolf Hair” style which is essentially a loose, shaggy hair cut with gelled, teased ends.

Onee-kei is the female origin of this style, which originally appeared in the mid-1990s when women in Shibuya started growing out of the Gyaru styles they were wearing and started wearing more adult looking body dresses and clothing. Today, Onii-kei can involve everything from a more military style appearance in the Ame-kaji tradition to a more European, suited appearance in the Ita-kaji tradition.

Lolita Style

The Lolita style started in the 1970s with the advent of brands like Angelic Pretty in Tokyo and has grown exponentially in the 1990s and 2000s with the development of publications such as the Gothic-Lolita Bible which showcases numerous new Lolita styles and trends that quickly spread throughout Japan (and now North America and Europe with recent translations).

The style itself involves a combination of 19th century Victorian and Edwardian clothing and makeup that very much mimics the appearance of popular porcelain dolls. Young women and teenagers will wear colorful lace dresses and outfit themselves with a large number of accessories such as bonnets, shoes, socks, and ribbons. Additional touches can include dyed hair and even color contact lenses to appear more like the Victorian dolls.

Variations to the inspiration for the style have included things like special backpacks and the inclusion of slightly less innocent imagery, and a more gothic bend to the style. Recent designers like h.Naoto have taken the trend in the complete opposite direction, nearly completely abandoning the cuteness of the Lolita in favor of the grit in the Gothic, though most clothing bought and worn in Tokyo streets tends to be a mixture of the two.

Decora Style

Made famous by fashion magazines like Fruits (and often called Fruits-style as a result) Decora is short for “Decoration”, a Tokyo street fashion that involves wearing as much colorful clothing and as many colorful accessories as possible. The clothing itself will often be overshadowed by the sheer weight and volume of the accessories including everything from plastic toys and jewelry to feather boas, wings, thick boots, and extra pairs of socks.

Japanese Streetwear

Streetwear is a general term that has come to define a number of developing fashion trends in Tokyo. Generally, the style refers to those who take their inspiration from Hip hop and R&B culture from overseas and in Japan. Designer sneakers, military inspired jackets, and screen printed t-shirts are often common aspects of this style. However, there are multiple derivatives of it as well.

Punk has a major influence in most Tokyo streetwear fashions, including the advent of the screen printed t-shirt and the slim legged denim that has become both famous in Japan and around the world for its original, handmade ingredients and sources.

Skateboarding culture is another major influence on streetwear fashions and can best be seen in the massive array of different sneaker brands and styles on the market in Tokyo and throughout Japan.

Tokyo’s Trend Setting Ways

For two decades, Tokyo’s streets have been a showcase for new fashions and trends to emerge. These trends are often the seeds of what Japan will be wearing in months or years to come and have intrigued visitors, celebrities, and fashion personalities from around the world. If one wants to know what the next likely street or youth fashion trends might be in two or three years, often they need only look to Tokyo.

Dressy Casual Attire for Women

2022-07-21T05:21:00.011-07:00

Life was so simple when the world was not obsessed with dress code. There were only two types of dressing styles, casual and formal. Formal was something you used to wear to office, weddings and evening parties. Casual clothing comprised of T-shirts, shorts, jeans which people used to wear for fishing trips, picnics or informal gatherings. However, with the increase in social events and the diversity in their nature, the demand for particular dressing style also increased. Newer terms were incorporated into the original definition of dress code. Apart from formal and casual, new dress codes such as business casual, smart casual, dressy casual, semi-formal, etc. were also introduced. This invariably added to the existing confusion of dress codes. In this article we are going to demystify dressy casual dress code, which is comparatively a lesser known dressing style. So, let us see what is dressy casual attire all about.

What is Dressy Casual Attire

If you ask the same question 'what does dressy casual mean?' to ten different people, you will get 10 different answers. This is one dress code, which does not specify stringent rules regarding dressing. Although, it is open to interpretation, one must use common sense while decoding this dress code. Degree of formality of the occasion is of prime importance whenever you consider dressing for any event. Morning events are usually the least formal, followed by brunches and afternoon events. Evening events are the most formal and demand stricter adherence to the dress code. Events that usually demand dressy casual attire are usually evening events that are more social and less of business type. Retirement parties, class reunions, promotion parties, inaugurations, exhibitions, etc. are some of the occasions which demand dressy casual dress code. The whole idea is to let the guests be comfortable in their clothing while still maintaining the required level of professionalism. Dressy casual attire is more or less similar to smart casual dress code, however, the fabrics become richer when you move towards the dressier style.

Dressy Casual Attire for Men

As mentioned above, there are no rules regarding what to wear when the invitation says dressy casual. Yet, there are some general guidelines which you can follow to minimize the risk of fashion faux pas. There is a lot of controversy regarding the inclusion of jeans as dressy casual attire. If you are unsure whether or not you should wear your designer jeans to an event, we offer a simple solution. If the event is a morning or an afternoon affair or if the occasion is relaxed and casual, sure go for your favorite pair of denims. Otherwise, it is better to stick to khakis, chinos and dress pants for men's clothing. Wear polo shirts, turtlenecks, button down shirts with or without jacket. Loafers or comfortable slip-ons are a good option for footwear. By all means avoid wearing your running shoes or sneakers to a dressy casual event. Maintaining a groomed look is a must, hence make sure your clothes are clean, crinkle free and your face well-groomed.

Dressy Casual Attire for Women

Dressy casual attire for women is open for interpretation and imagination. Simple, straight fit jeans with a dressy top in rich fabric such as velvet, silk or satin is a good women's clothing idea for dressy casuals. You can also wear long or short skirts with satin blouses and throw a jacket. Pants and jackets also give you the desired look. You can also team up your attire with cardigans, sweaters or vest coats. Accessorizing your attire is a must for women, hence make sure your bag, jewelry is in sync with your attire. Open toe shoes should be avoided with a dressy casual outfit. Instead trust your formal party shoes while dressing up for a dressy causal event.

The WHO’S NEXT and PREMIERE CLASSE trade shows held in Paris – Porte de Versailles, presenting the F/W 2011 collections, ended last Tuesday January 25th. Altogether, 54,182 buyers entered hall 1, showing a 4% rise in the attendance compared with January 10.

Especially noticeable this session, the strong French (+2.1%) and international (+6.7%) attendance: 65% for France (35,030 visitors) and 35% for the rest of the world (19,152 visitors). With increases ranging from +13 to +24%, the Italians, Spanish, Belgians and Japanese have showed their commitment to the trade show.

In January 2010, attendance had been limited to 52,258 visitors (including FASHION PASS visitors).

Key figures and information:

Pick in the attendance on Sunday with 19,448 visitors, followed by Saturday (18,278 visitors), Monday and Tuesday.

France
Once again, the French provinces were very well represented at both trade shows: 21,486 visitors, i.e. 3.5% more than January 10 and 61% of the French global attendance. The Paris and Paris region attendance remains unchanged with 13,544 visitors (-0.2%).

Europe
European buyers (France excepted) rank first, accounting for 77.5% of the international attendance at both trade shows, i.e. 14 850 visitors.

Italy takes the lead once again, accounting for most of the foreign attendance with 4,052 visitors (+21%), followed by Spain: 2 286 visitors (+23.3%) and Belgium: 1,848 visitors (+13.4%). Rise in the attendance for the following countries too, United Kingdom: +7.5% (1 030 visitors), Switzerland: +20.8% (i916 visitors) and Germany: +26.7% with 882 visitors.

Asia
Asia remains the 2nd most represented continent accounting for 12% of the international attendance with 2,304 buyers, i.e. a 17.7% growth. Japan remains the 4th most represented foreign country at both trade shows. The attendance shows a noteworthy 16.7% growth compared to January 10, with 1,456 visitors (i.e. 7.6% of international attendance). China and Hong Kong almost doubled their figures with 392 buyers (+40%). while Korea showed a 10.6% drop in attendance (220 buyers).

America
The American attendance dropped slightly (-3.2%) with 848 visitors. After the spectacular rise in attendance in January 10, the U.S. show a 6.3% drop with 386 buyers. Canada also shows a slight decrease with 190 buyers (- 4%). The same goes for Brazil with a 25.6% drop (i.e. 70 buyers).

Middle East
WHO’S NEXT & PREMIERE CLASSE are still taking advantage of the buzz generated by the MIDDLE EAST FASHION DAYS organized since October 09 in Dubai. The most compelling proof: a 26.5% rise in the Middle Eastern attendance (706 buyers, i.e. 3.7% of the foreign attendance). Leading buyers from Lebanon were especially present, followed by Israel and Saudi Arabia.

Africa
Africa represents 1.6% of the international attendance with 310 visitors. A slight 1.3% drop compared with the same session last year.

Unique Ideas To Choose Mens Prom Dresses To Impress Your Girl

2011-01-31T04:13:00.001-08:00

Choosing to wear befitting and unique prom dresses on a prom night does not only come in the fashion domain of an about-to-leave-her-school girl, but going for the best prom dresses can be considered equally important for all school leaving men too.

A simple looking mistake can be hyped unnecessarily and people will leave no stone unturned to make a mountain out of a mole. So you have to be extremely careful enough otherwise you may have to face some inevitable.

The one could be that you might have to lose your partner. The another could be that you might have to lose your potential girls. The third could be that you might have given your critics some more chances to go happy.

Thus leave nothing while you don the most stylish mens prom dresses to see your girl impressed by your dress sense that night. So she can rate her prom night as the second most important night of her life. Of course, the most important one is yet to come.

So, oh men! Try to choose as impressive mens clothing as possible. After all your girl needs to have some stories to tell her friends once she is asked about your fashion maneuvers on your prom night. Lets see these tips and tricks showing how you can be the most dazzling and stunning one for your girl that night.

Comfort Counts : Choose what you want, but never forget that nothing can be called 'stylish' by her unless it gives you much needed comfort. Of course, your comfort quotient can be visible once you hit the floor.

Don't you know that dancing and swinging on your toes welcome least obstruction? A friendly cut relives you from the job to keep it managing all the time. After all, you need to have a pair of hands to hold her only, not your mens prom dresses.

Unique But Sober : Whatever mens prom dresses you choose must look charming and sober. You shouldn't join the bandwagon of those who always keep looking for something which looks unique but eventually make a mockery of you that prom night.

Of course, the formal prom must look formal only. Refrain from glossy and sparkling fabrics and textures. Only your girl has the right to wear shimmering prom dresses. To look most sober try a black dinner suit which is single breasted. Pair it up with a blue or red cummerbund and bow tie.

Style File : However, still there is something left which will make your girl count your mens prom dress as most stylish one. Thus choose one which suits your body shape at its best.

The sleeves of your mens prom should cover your wrists properly and the chest area should not hang loosely. The shoulder area should be loose enough to give you maximum free movements while you raise your arms in the air.

Footwear and Accessories : Choosing a right footwear for your prom is a bit tricky. Choose only black formal leather shoes. The plain looking and pointed shapes are most sought after. Refrain from a shoe which has many stitch lines or pinholes on it, only in the name of fashion.

Refrain from a keeping a crisp white handkerchief near your chest. Something in light cream hue will do. Though the idea is on a wane slowly, still a tie can be a tool to impress your girl. Choose a tie which matches the suit. A bow tie too can be effective, if you don't like ties.

However, if you love to wear a scarf then try an evening tailcoat. Pair it up with a bow tie and a white or a light blue mens shirt.

Scanning the Skin : Not only does how a mens prom dress fit on your body, how does it matches with your skin tone works a great deal too. So choose only those textures and colors which make a striking resonance with your skin tone.

However, nothing is parallel to choosing a black mens prom dress. Your girls will appreciate your likeness for classic fashion apparel.

Go to Store : To have the best and most suitable mens prom dress, going to a prom dress store is most profitable. You can grab your prom dress after giving attention to all the necessary details.

You may end up saving some money too. Being sensible? Eh! After all ordering a prom dress online may need you to pay the shipping cost too, though many offer free shipping delivery. A girl loves a sensible man, isn't it?

Spring Fashion Trends For Men

For men, spring brings a lot of chances to show their fashion sense. Definitely, men are cooler in spring than any other season round the calender. But most of the time this 'cool' feature turns off when it comes to choosing a right office wear as part of spring fashion trends for men in 2009.

The designers and experts are paying attention to minute details like never before as far as your office wear this spring 2009 is concerned.

Light Green Ties To Office, But How ? This spring 2009 has brought chances galore to make you look trendier than ever. Thus put a full stop before the traditional striped, glossy and deep colored ties this spring 2009. Rather this spring has opened up a completely new gate(read floodgate) of light green ties.

The designers have designed spring mens ties using various lighter shades of green. Thus when ever you happen to wear a white shirt to your office, don't dare to wear a tie dipped in a color other than tea green or lime green.

While if you happen to wear a shirt in light blue, bright pink or lemon yellow before you enter your cubicle, wearing a tie in sage green or mint green will be a befitting mens clothing for office going men. Wearing a polka dot mens shirt too will cause the same effect.

However, wearing a deep color shirt with these light green ties would be an office fashion faux pas this spring 2009, except wearing such ones with a black satin satin shirt. A black satin shirt is compatible mens spring fashion trend with all the ties in lighter shades of green, definitely.

Blazing Blazers To Office, But How ? Now you have got your ties. You will get your shirts in the next article of spring office wear fashion trends for men. What else do you want? Oh! I forgot it, indeed. You need a befitting blazer before you proceed to your office. Of course, the mens spring fashion trend is not complete without it.

While looking for an exciting blazer as a part of your office wear, first of all, look at the type and quality of the fabric this spring 2009. Surely, the all-time-hit cotton fabric is number one choice for your office blazer.

However, if you are supposed to attend a spring office party in the night, choose a blazer made of refined wool or cashmere. Now feel the comfort and warmth of such one! Even you can use satin and velvet blazers to look trendier during those spring nights.

However, refrain from wearing blazers which uses synthetic fabric injudiciously. A blazer having 10-12% percent synthetic fabric is considered safe. Anything more than that will make the breathing immensely hard to your body.

As far as the style and cut, as part of spring fashion trends for men, is concerned, choose a traditional cut if you posses a heavy and chubby figure. Such mens fashion apparel are much flattering for plus-size men. However, a man who has an athletic figure must go for an 'European Cut.' Such a cut will provide him a befitting silhouette this spring 2009.

Like your ties and shirts, related to mens spring fashion trends 2009, your blazers too need to be in lighter shades and hues to give you a striking spring office wear this year of 2009. However, when you need to choose a blazer, get ensured that the patterns on the fabric make a resonance with its color.

For example, striped patterns are a strict no no this spring 2009. They are suitable on a deep color fabric only. Don't you know that we are talking about light color fabrics only? Thus go for a light texture for your office wear which come with check and other geometric patterns only. And lastly do not forget to wear a good wristwatch to sum up the effect and also to make you reach on time.

2011-01-31T03:24:00.001-08:00

Like all the springs and summers so far seen by this fashion sensitive generation, the spring/summer 2009 too has come up with some unique and niche type of fashion trends. These must have fashion trends are bold, hot, trendy but cool too. However, it doesn't mean that the things being promoted as part of spring/summer must have fashion trends 2009 were not seen or experienced ever. Most of them are a simple but completely different variations of the older things.

For example, the favorite dress this year was profoundly used back in the initial decades of the last century. On the same line the most favorite color this year is an innovative version launched by Pantone. The favorite pants and trousers meant for this spring/summer is an artistic replica of a favorite jeans type. Read out the following lines to know more about what are latest womens clothing fashion trends you must have this spring/summer 2009.

Favorite Color : No more the trend of dull and dark colors, this spring/summer. Rather, not only this current spring/summer 2009, but the whole year belongs to Mimosa Yellow, a trendy variation of all-time hit of yellow. You can relate this fashion color, an innovation of color giant Pantone, to a soon-to-ripe papaya or a shining orange. So this spring/summer, whatever you buy, right from your fashion accessories to your fashion apparel, dare not to think of buying anything dipped in any other color. Definitely, Mimosa Yellow is the color of year 2009, so it will rule!

Favorite Party Dress : The spring/summer 2009 fashion trends tell you to be a trendsetter, rather than being a follower. So what about trying something which was in the center of fashion decades back; a party dress with fringes around the knee areas. Of course, the party dresses with fringes will raise many eyebrows. But you have already decided to be a winner. So, why to bother? To be the most fashionable, this spring/summer, try a fringe party dress in Mimosa Yellow. Don't you know that it is the favorite color this year. Try with big and statement earrings and classic black sandals.

Favorite Evening Gown : Many fashionable ladies, in order to make the evenings the best phase of her 'days,' constantly look to buy and wear the most fashionable and trendy evening gowns, available in the market. The current spring/summer 2009 must have fashion trends have seen the rising trend of one-shoulder evening gowns. What could be better than wearing a one-shoulder gown dipped in any of the Pantone's best colors. However, again I must say that nothing is better than the hit Mimosa Yellow.

Favorite Jewelry Type : The way you donned the trendy fringe party dress, you can try to look the boldest even while putting on a befitting jewelry. The common jewelry trend, this spring/summer, has gone 'bigger.' So whatever fashion jewelry, you plan to wear this year that has to be ultimately 'big and bold.' The colorful circular statement earrings have made a mark already. Moreover, you can wear wide metallic bracelets. Wearing bigger pendants has gone a complete hit.

Favorite Pant :Boyfriend pants! What? I have heard of boyfriend jeans millions of times, but what does this boyfriend pant means? Yes, this is an emerging bold trend. They are very much same in design like any boyfriend jeans, but made of varied fabrics, however, not of denim, necessarily. These womens jeans are cool this spring/summer and are made to give you a relaxed feel and fit. The best could be one made of cotton. The design is pretty simple; a semi-gripping below knee part along with a loose-fit area around the hips and waistline. Suitable for all the casual walks and parties. Try with sandals or wedges.

Being Friends With the Opposite Friends

2011-01-16T04:22:00.001-08:00

Almost everyone has at least one friend of the opposite sex. Sometimes it may be hard, while other times it's great having someone there to talk to and understand your relationship as the same sex as your partner.

It's hard to not cross the line. Being friends with the opposite sex means spending tons of time together. However, you must know your boundaries of what you can and cannot do or talk about. It is quite common for the male or female in the friendship to have a crush on the other person. This leads to many difficulties. Although, if it's pointed out from the start that the relationship will not grow more than just a friendship, it may be a blessing.

A crush obviously means feelings for the other. So, when one is in trouble, they can go straight to their friend and talk them through it -- many times being more sincere than others.

Although this sounds great, it could lead to problems. If the friend keeps his or her feelings to himself/herself for a long period of time they could explode, leaving heartaches on both sides of the spectrum. Even if the feelings aren't kept bundled up, heartache may be in order once the other finds a partner. Which, may also end up hurting the partner, making them jealous or forbidding the friends to see each other.

Most friends of opposite sexes are great from the start, but fade in time. However, friendship may become more; many friends become spouses later on, be it ten or twenty-years down the road. Most just need to realize their true feelings for the other before becoming serious.

Indian Fusion Outfits

24 November, 2010- We have seen significant impact of Westernization on Indian Clothing. Indian women of all ages have turned to Western garments like jeans, skirts, tops, T-shirts, suits and there has been growing preference of such clothing over traditional clothing like sarees, salwar suits and lehenga cholis. Even then, we still a certain section of the population that prefers to follow the traditional Indian clothing. As such in the fashion market today, we see a beautiful amalgamation of Indian and Western clothing, which is popularly referred as "Indo-Western" garments or "Indo-Western fusion" garments or Indian Fusion Outfits.

Indo Western Blend

Interestingly, the unique designs available in such dresses with an ethnic Indian touch has gained popularity in the Western market as more and more people globally has accepted this form of clothing. The fusion outfits have become “the in thing” today and are becoming the choice of apparel at formal and informal occasions. There are several fashion designers who have come up with beautiful Indo-Western fusion garments. These garments have become all the more popular as we have seen fashion models, film stars, and other celebrities wearing them in various social gatherings and red carpet events.

The basic concept of fusion outfit is a combination of Western-style patterns and Indian designs. For instance, the simple traditional salwar suits can be given a western touch by changes in the sleeves and neck designs, or a decorative stole used as an accessory for added effect. Again in western dresses like a top or blouse or a skirt, Indian embroidery styles from different parts of India like Phulkari from Punjab, Kantha stitch from Bengal, Chikankari from Lucknow or mirror work from Rajasthan can be seen. Sometimes, more elaborate embroidery styles like Meenakari, Resham, Kundan, Zardozi work are also used. Denim jackets and pants are given an Indian touch with embroidery and other embellishments on them. Indian kurtis, worn with denim pants or trousers, have become very popular among the young crowd. Another popular fusion outfit is a kurti paired with a straight-cut pant-style salwar and a dupatta. Nowadays, innovative styles bringing in the fusion is seen in short dupattas, pants with slits and spaghetti-style tops. Short shirts are worn with patiala style salwars.

Indo Western Salwar Suits

Even the Indian saree has shown a fusion in terms of the materials used or in design patterns. Saree blouses are becoming more and more Westernised in pattern. There are pre-stitched saree to give a figure hugging look. Sarees are being draped in the Grecian style. Instead of traditional cholis, Lehengas are worn with halter tops or strapless tops. The lehengas are more or less given the shape of evening gowns. Such amalgamation is also seen in accessories, especially in case of jewelery. Usually, a light Western touch is added to traditional ethnic jewelery, so that it complements with fusion wear.

One of the main reasons why Indo-Western fusion fashion has become so popular in India as well as in other countries is that they have a trendy and elegant appearance. There is this ethnic touch, perfect blending from both Indian and Western cultures, making them suitable for wearing at all kinds of occasions. Such outfits are suitable for wear by almost all age groups, and is all the rage among the youngsters. Indo-Western fusion outfits are available in different styles. The daring ones to the modest ones: you just need to make your choice. Fusion outfit is also more comfortable to wear, as against the traditional Indian dresses, which is why it is being largely preferred by the professional women.
