Japan Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2006
Welcome to Japanese Streets coverage of Japan Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2006. Kjeld and I will be shooting and reporting on the major shows in this year’s revamp of the Tokyo Collections.
Men's Non-No
“Men’s Non-No” is one of many fashion magazines aimed at fashion-conscious Japanese men. It is the bible of Japanese men’s fashion and leads the way with a comprehensive overview of new trends and styles for young men all around Japan.
YAB-YUM Interview
Shortly after their TOKYO GOTH show at the Japan Fashion Week last year I had a short e-mail exchange with YAB-YUM designer Patrick Ryan
Blonde is Fading
“Japan’s blondes vanish as women turn to dark side,” Reuters reports today.
Kjeld Duits: @Dustheap: I don’t think the reporter was actually correct when she wrote that straight hair black hair is considered unflattering in Japan. That is why I commented on the article. I am sure there are lots of people who think so, but they are definitely not a majority.
Having said that, I think you always have the The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence thing happening, people wanting things they don't, or can't, have.
Dustheap: It’s so strange that straight hair is considered unfaltering in japan, yet in America everyone wants that flat ironed hair look… I see people with wavy hair, yet it seems that more people want straight!
