Overview
Come and learn about the vibrant world of Japanese youth and fashion!
We'll see how young Japanese people, trapped in the pressure of a homogenous society, find a way to express their identity in fashion. From the most extreme looks to high fashion, we'll discover how avant-garde trends become a form of resistance and personal affirmation.
Throughout the tour, we'll also get to see the impact of fierce consumerism, where style and consumption go hand in hand, reflecting the tension between belonging to a group and standing out as an individual.
We will visit:
- Takeshita street is a vibrant corner of youthful fashion and extreme trends.
- Omotesando is a luxury and high fashion neighborhood.
- Cat street is a path full of urban style and innovation.
- Miyashita Park is a modern space that reflects the youthful lifestyle.
- Parco, a shopping mall that sets the pulse of the latest trends.
- Shibuya Crossing, the world's most famous intersection, is a meeting point for fashion and youth culture.
Join us on this journey through the epicenter of Japanese youth fashion!
