On our blog we talked quite often about Japanese “alternative” street-styles, but asian fashion is not only Gothic Lolita or Fairy Kei. Along the streets of Tokyo and around, in fact, most girls wear clothes surely less flashy but not less kawaii. We can’t go shopping in Shibuya, but we can buy the latest fashion clothes and accessories directly from our homes!

Events: Fashion Walk and talk on Japanese street styles in Udine
And after the Teacup, here we are to tell you about another event related to Japanese fashion in Italy! As we mentioned recently, in late April there was in Udine a day entirely dedicated to Eastern street styles. To tell us about the event, our friend Deborah/Ray, who sent us her chronicle of the Fashion Walk and the conference that followed. Of course, we thank her for taking her time to write the post you are about to read. Additional thanks to Christian Pellegrin, which allowed us to use his photographs (you can see much more on his Flickr page).
J*Fashion: Gyaru style in Italy, a chat with Honey Pop
Among the several fashion styles in vogue in Japan, one of the most famous is certainly Gyaru Kei. This style has become hugely popular around the 90s and over time has seen the birth of a great variety of subgroups. The one of you who has visited the 109, the department store of Shibuya famous as reference point for Gyaru, you will surely realize the many aspects of this fashion.
