If you love Japanese female fashion get this book!
"Japanese Schoolgirl Inferno" Tokyo teen fashion subculture handbook" It tells you all about the different fashions that came out in the last 60 to 50 years. It is AWESOME!!!

Click here for link Looks like it's good (^^) Only two reviews, but both were 5 stars! I'm going to get it as soon as I can~ |
What would we have done without Amazon....?
|
Uwaah!
I SO NEED THAT BOOK!!! I also want a book called something like Fresh FRUiTS, which is a compendium of Shoichi Aoki's photographs of interestingly dressed people in the streets of Japan. There was a book in 2001- so before this one- called FRUiTS, which was the same idea.

Finished reading the book a few days ago (forgot to comment here)~ I loved it! It gave a lot of backround information I wasn't aware of. Though it was also filled with common sense stuff most already know that are into Japanese Street Fashion. (Though, since it's a 'handbook', I guess it's suppose to have both). haha. Much worth the money~! (^^)/

One of the authors, Patrick Macias, is the editor of OtakuUSA magazine. He knows his stuff...

: D FRUiTS I mean. Rly guiid. A lot better than that Japanese Schoolgirl Inferno one IMO. The Waterstones over here stocks it so I had a flick through. And eh, I don;t like it...XD Pretty small and just too basic. It's based solely for ULTRAAA beginners and there's not many picturds in it either. FRUiTS is rly nize though, although they have a random picturd of a dog in it. Like, just a plain dog on it's own infront of a wall. XD Confused me for a while >< |

I recently when to Borders and bought the Gothic Lolita book made by Yoshinaga-san and PHAIDON and saw that Fruits book! It's at any Borders for about $30.:vsign:

Hello Sophieneechan!
I just wanted to say that my name is Sophie too! Also I got Rikku on the Final Fantasy Quiz! wouldn't it be weird if we were twins that were seperated at birth?!?! Maybe we're linsey lohan and... ... -_- linsey Lohan! *shock* |
I want them both!

That sounds so cool!

I just got this AMAZING book for christmas... I think I'm talking about the same book as LolitaYuki.
It's called 'Gothic & Lolita' and it's from Phaidon... Though it contains only photos It has just 1 page with text about how and where Gothic and Lolita exsisted, but there are hundreds of photos in it, taken in Osaka and Tokyo from boys, girls, men and women of all ages with all sorts of beautiful outfits. SO IF YOU LIKE GOTHIC AND LOLITA YOU REALLY NEED TO GET THIS BOOK!!! You can buy it online and it cost me 30 euros (no idea how many dollars, pounds, etc.) |
I wnat the books too. :o
|
*nodnod* I saw that! It's SO cool!
|
i love j fashion!
|
I have this book!
And I :rheart: it all to pieces! ^_^ |
Ah, I've seen that book before ~ ! It has lots of cool insights into the gyaru scene.
P.S.: I just picked up the first English Gothic and Lolita Bible, and it's great ~ ! For any one who likes female Lolita, fashion, get that book ~ ! |
Nyappy!
I just got it yesterday! wOOt wOOt! :mtongue:
I had a great time flipping through it... Somehow it's very Japanese.. |
