#3. Harajuku Girls

Harajuku girls’, popularly known as the ‘fashion aficionados’ or the ‘beauty stars of Japan’, are best known all over the world for their unique costumes, which are made in various styles of clothing that originated in the rich culture of some of the major cities of Japan. They have been named after the very popular Harajuku district in Tokyo and were made popular in the West by the ‘Love.Angel.Music.Baby’ album released in 2004 by Gwen Stefani.

Their Clothing Styles

These young, beautiful fashion icons are Japanese teenage girls who gather in a narrow street of ‘Takeshita’ every weekend and dress themselves up as the baby dolls of the Lolita-esque caricatures. A large number of fashion styles, including the cyber fashion, Gothic Maid, Wamono, Gothic Lolita, Second-Hand Fashion, and Decorah, can be noticed among these young ladies.

They can be often seen wearing dark outfits combined with traditional Japanese clothing, such as Kimonos and fans. Some of them also wear fake bandages and blood and carry things, such as cell phones, hello kitties, and photo stickers, which symbolize modern Japan. The varied clothing styles of these girls are beautifully featured by ‘FRUiTS’, the most popular Japanese street-fashion magazine.

Their Purpose

Why do these Harajuku girls dress in such outrageous outfits every weekend? Is it their love for fashion that drives them to do so? The answer is ‘No’. There are much deeper reasons behind it. The weekly ceremony that lasts just for a few hours allows them to not only spend their spare time and money, but also momentarily escape the strict rules of the male-dominated Japanese society. Outrageous dressing styles actually symbolize the oppression of the female gender and their attempt to seek their individuality and independence to express.

Their Nature

They compete with each other to look more iconic and less human! These outrageously dressed teenagers look no less than characters of a Japanese Anime series or a comic book of Manga. However, these girls are extremely fun loving, polite, and beautiful. They would love to pose for photographs with you if you request them for a happy snap.

In short, the Harajuku district is a must-see on weekends for all those who visit Tokyo. If you really wish to see a unique blend of tradition and modernization of the Japanese society, you should certainly not miss the opportunity to meet these wonderful fashion icons and the beauty stars of Japan.

#4. KOGAL

Kogal are a subculture of girls and young women in urban Japan, one of several types of so-called gals. They are characterized by conspicuously displaying their disposable incomes through unique tastes in fashion, music, and social activity. In general, the kogal "look" roughly approximates a sun-tanned California Valley girl, and indeed, the similarities between the two extend to the linguistic, for both subcultures have derived entire sets of slang terms . Kogals are not to be confused with the ganguro subculture, although they are similar.
